Abstract

A memory has data lines through which data connections are connected to groups of memory cells via a synchronizing unit. The synchronizing unit is disposed adjacent to the cell group and has a clock input to which an internal clock signal is fed. In the event of a write access to the memory, the synchronizing unit synchronizes with the internal clock signal data signals that are fed via the data connections and are synchronous with an external clock signal.
