Popis: This paper describes a 32-bank 1 Gb DRAM achieving 1 Gbyte/s (500 Mb/s/DQ pin) data bandwidth and the access time from RAS of 31 ns at V/sub cc/=2.0 V and 25/spl deg/C. The chip employs (1) a merged multibank architecture to minimize die area; (2) an extended small swing read operation and a single I/O line driving write scheme to reduce power consumption; (3) a self-strobing I/O schemes to achieve high bandwidth with low power dissipation; and (4) a block redundancy scheme with increased flexibility. The nonstitched chip with an area of 652 mm/sup 2/ has been fabricated using 0.16 /spl mu/m four-poly, four-metal CMOS process technology.
