Abstract
A dynamic RAM includes a memory cell comprised of a data read transistor, a data write transistor and a data storage capacitor. The data write transistor is turned on in response to a row selection signal to connect the capacitor to a write bit line. The dynamic RAM includes a structure for shifting the level of potential of internal write data to be transmitted onto the write bit line. This structure will prevent the data write transistor from being turned on by the undershoot produced on the write bit line.
