In the semiconductor memory device and the post package repair method, in a post package repair mode, a second memory bank is used as a fail bit map memory for storing failed bit information regarding a first memory bank, and the first memory bank is used as a fail bit map memory for storing failed bit information regarding the second memory bank. | 10-09-2008 |
| 20090044063 | Semiconductor memory device and test system of a semiconductor memory device - A semiconductor memory device includes a memory core unit, N data output buffers, N data output ports, and a plurality of test logic circuits. The memory core unit stores test data through N data lines. The N data output buffers are respectively connected to the corresponding N data lines. The N data output ports are connected to the corresponding N data output buffers, and exchange the test data with an external tester respectively. The plurality of test logic circuits receives the test data through the K data lines from the N data lines, performs test logic operation on the received test data, and provides a data output buffer control signal that determines activation of K data output buffers of the N data output buffers in test mode. The semiconductor memory device reduces test cycle. | 02-12-2009 |
| 20090079496 | MULTI-CHIP PACKAGE FOR REDUCING PARASITIC LOAD OF PIN - Multi-chip package includes first through Nth semiconductor chips, each of which includes an input/output pad, an input/output driver coupled to the input/output pad, and an internal circuit. Each of the first through Nth semiconductor chips includes an internal pad for coupling the internal input/output driver and the internal circuit. The internal pads of the first through Nth semiconductor chips are coupled to each other such as via a common pad installed at a substrate. The input/output pad of the first semiconductor chip directly receives an input/output signal transmitted via a corresponding pin of the multi-chip package. The second through Nth semiconductor chips indirectly receive the input/output signal via the internal pads coupled to each other. The multi-chip package can improve signal compatibility by maintaining a parasitic load of a pin to at least the level of a single chip, when a signal is transmitted to the pin at high speed. Also, when a signal that is not necessarily transmitted at high speed is applied to a pin, semiconductor chips can be packaged according to the preexisting methods. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20110043235 | SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE HAVING A PLURALITY OF PADS - A semiconductor device includes a plurality of sensor pads configured to receive a probe signal from a testing apparatus, and a plurality of normal pads configured to receive a driving signal to drive the semiconductor device. In the plurality of sensor pads and the plurality of normal pads, a length in a direction corresponding to one of progress directions of a plurality of needles of the testing apparatus is longer than a length in another progress direction of the plurality of needles. | 02-24-2011 |
