A cache hit logic for determining whether data required by a processor is
stored in a cache memory includes a dummy cell string that operates the
same as a sense amplifier for sensing a tag address stored in a tag
memory cell array and a comparison logic for determining whether the
sensed tag address coincides with an input tag address, a dummy sense
amplifier, and a dummy comparison logic. The cache hit logic improves the
reliability of a hit signal and operation speed is not limited.
