Semiconductor storage device having a plurality of stacked memory chips
First Claim
1. A semiconductor storage device comprising:
- a base substrate having a command/address external terminal group to which command signals and address signals are supplied, a data input/output external terminal group for inputting and outputting data signals, and a single chip select external terminal; and
a plurality of memory chips that are stacked on the base substrate and are each individually capable of reading and writing operations, wherein a plurality of terminals constituting said command/address external terminal group, a plurality of terminals constituting said data input/output external terminal group, and said single chip select external terminal are connected to a single chip that has an interface function; and
the single chip that has the interface function further has at least a chip select signal generation circuit that can individually activate said plurality of memory chips based on said address signals supplied via said command/address external terminal group and based on said chip select signal supplied via said chip select external terminal.

Abstract
A semiconductor storage employs a base substrate (101) having a command/address external terminal group (CA), a data input/output external terminal group (DQ), and a single chip select external terminal (CS), and also comprises a plurality of memory chips (110) to (113) mounted on a base substrate (101), each of which can individually carry out read and write operations. The terminals (CA), (DQ), and (CS) are connected to an interface chip (120). The interface chip (120) has a chip select signal generation circuit that can individually activate a plurality of memory chips (110) to (113) on the basis of an address signal fed by way of the terminal (CA) and on the basis of a chip select signal fed by way of the terminal (CS).
