Abstract

A memory arrangement is comprised of a plurality of memory chips, and address and control lines connected to the chips. In order to minimize the effect of interference of signals from the address lines on the control lines, the address lines coupled to a portion of the chips carry address signals in inverted form, as compared with the address signals applied to the remainder of the chips, whereby interference signals of opposite polarity are induced in the control lines and cancel each other.
