PLL timing design techniques introduced here feature (1) a word-line resetting-equalization scheme for reducting the access time and the memory cell current, (2) a cyclic input buffer power-cutting scheme to reduce the excess power in low-frequency operation, and (3) a super-pipelined parallel test scheme which allows the evaluation of high-speed LSIs by low-speed LSI testers to reduce the test costs. These techniques successfully contribute to the development of a 7 ns GTL I/O 16 Mb BiCMOS SRAM LSI.
