Abstract

A decoder for decoding address signals and a clock signal, in a synchronous CMOS memory, comprising an MOS transistor of one conductivity-type, to whose gate is applied a clock-including address signal, and a plurality of MOS transistors of the opposite conductivity-type connected in series, to each gate of which is applied the address signal and the clock-including address signal, respectively, whereby a terminal connecting the MOS transistor of one conductivity-type and the MOS transistors of the opposite conductivity-type serves as an output.
