Reducing Leakage Current In Memory Device Using Bitline Isolation

View page
US Patent:
7492648, Feb 17, 2009
Filed:
Mar 24, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/387879
Inventors:
Andre Sturm - Essex Junction VT, US
Christopher Miller - Underhill VT, US
Wolfgang Hokenmaier - Burlington VT, US
Michael Killian - Richmond VT, US
Jochen Hoffman - Colchester VT, US
Assignee:
Infineon Technologies AG - Neubiberg
International Classification:
G11C 7/08
G11C 8/12
US Classification:
365195, 365196, 365200, 3652257, 36523003
Abstract:
A method for reducing defect leakage current in a semiconductor memory device comprising a plurality of memory banks, each memory bank comprising a plurality of memory arrays and sense amplifier columns comprising a plurality of sense amplifiers, wherein there is a sense amplifier column positioned between and shared by memory arrays on opposites thereof. At least one bank-specific isolation control signal is independently generated for each of the plurality of memory banks depending on existence and location of an anomalous bitline leakage in a memory bank. The at least one bank-specific isolation control signal is supplied to at least one sense amplifier column in the corresponding memory bank to isolate at least one side to at least one memory array that is in an unselected state in a corresponding memory bank.

Power Savings For Memory With Error Correction Mode

View page
US Patent:
7840876, Nov 23, 2010
Filed:
Feb 20, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/676774
Inventors:
Andre Sturm - Essex Junction VT, US
Harald Streif - Burlington VT, US
Assignee:
Qimonda AG - München
International Classification:
G11C 29/00
US Classification:
714766
Abstract:
The present invention includes a memory device with a data memory and an error correction code control circuit. The data memory stores data parity information for error correction. The error correction code control circuit is configured to receive a selection signal indicative of whether an error correction mode is to be used. Power to access the portion of the memory storing the parity information is disabled when the error correction mode is enabled.

Bitline Isolation Control To Reduce Leakage Current In Memory Device

View page
US Patent:
20070223296, Sep 27, 2007
Filed:
Mar 24, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/387882
Inventors:
Christopher Miller - Underhill VT, US
Andre Sturm - Essex Junction VT, US
Wolfgang Hokenmaier - Burlington VT, US
International Classification:
G11C 7/02
US Classification:
365208000
Abstract:
A semiconductor memory device and method are provided in which leakage current of the memory device is reduced. A sense amplifier is isolated from a memory array that has an anomalous bitline leakage when the memory array is not selected.

Separate Sense Amplifier Precharge Node In A Semiconductor Memory Device

View page
US Patent:
20070247938, Oct 25, 2007
Filed:
Apr 25, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/410255
Inventors:
Christopher Miller - Underhill VT, US
Andre Sturm - Essex Junction VT, US
International Classification:
G11C 7/02
US Classification:
365207000
Abstract:
A method and memory device are provided in which sense nodes of a sense amplifier in a semiconductor memory device are internally precharged independent of equalize and precharge operations on bitlines of a memory array associated with the sense amplifier.

Active Write Current Adjustment For Magneto-Resistive Random Access Memory

View page
US Patent:
20080080232, Apr 3, 2008
Filed:
Sep 28, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/529569
Inventors:
Andre Sturm - Essex Junction VT, US
Hans-Heinrich Viehmann - Munich, DE
Dietmar Gogl - Essex Junction VT, US
International Classification:
G11C 11/00
G11C 11/14
G11C 11/15
US Classification:
365158, 365171, 365173
Abstract:
In a method of programming a magneto resistive memory cell, a first magnetic field is applied to the magneto resistive memory cell. It is determined whether the magneto resistive memory cell meets a programming criterion. In case that the magneto resistive memory cell does not meet the programming criterion, a second magnetic field, which is higher or lower than the first magnetic field, is applied to the magneto resistive memory cell. It is then determined whether the magneto resistive memory cell meets a programming criterion. The magnetic field is increased or decreased in case that the magneto resistive memory cell does not meet the programming criterion until the magneto resistive memory cell meets the programming criterion.

US Patent:
20080238468, Oct 2, 2008
Filed:
Mar 26, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/727291
Inventors:
Andre Sturm - Essex Junction VT, US
Thomas Vogelsang - Jericho VT, US
Marc Walter - Munchen, DE
Assignee:
Qimonda North America Corp. - Cary NC
Qimonda AG - Munich
International Classification:
G01R 31/02
US Classification:
324763
Abstract:
In a method or apparatus such as an integrated circuit (IC) chip including a plurality of circuits for executing a plurality of testmodes, a testmode entry code specifying one of the plurality of testmodes and one of an unrestricted private testmode category and a restricted public testmode category is received. Execution of only a public testmode of the plurality of testmodes is enabled when the testmode entry code specifies the restricted public testmode category. Execution of all of the plurality of testmodes is enabled when the testmode entry code specifies the unrestricted private testmode category.
