Abstract: A semiconductor device includes: a peripheral circuit region including circuit elements on a substrate, the circuit elements of a page buffer and a row decoder; and a cell region including gate electrode layers, stacked in a first direction, perpendicular to an upper surface of the substrate, and connected to the row decoder, and channel structures extending in the first direction to penetrate through the gate electrode layers and to be connected to the page buffer. The row decoder includes high-voltage elements, operating at a first power supply voltage, and low-voltage elements operating at a second power supply voltage, lower than the first power supply voltage. Among the high-voltage elements, at least one first high-voltage device is in a first well region doped with impurities having a first conductivity-type. At least one of the low-voltage elements is in a second well region surrounding the first well region and doped with impurities having a second conductivity-type, different from the first conductivity-type.

Abstract: A nonvolatile memory includes; a memory cell array including memory cells commonly connected to a first signal line, a first row decoder including a first pass transistor configured to provide a driving voltage to one end of the first signal line, and a second row decoder including a second pass transistor configured to provide the driving voltage to an opposing end of the first signal line. An ON-resistance of the first pass transistor is different from an ON-resistance of the second pass transistor. A first wiring line having a first resistance connects the first pass transistor and the one end of the first signal line and a second wiring line having a second resistance different from the first resistance connects the second pass transistor and the opposing end of the first signal line.

Abstract: A clock gating cell includes an input logic/latch circuit, a keeper logic/signal generating circuit, and an output driver. The input logic/latch circuit generates an internal enable signal based on first and second input enable signals, and generates a first internal signal provided to a first node based on the internal enable signal and an input clock signal. The keeper logic/signal generating circuit is connected between the first node and a second node, includes a feedback path feeding back the first internal signal, generates a second internal signal provided to the second node based on the first internal signal and the input clock signal, and includes first and second paths discharging the second node. The first and second paths are different. The second path is connected to the feedback path. The output driver generates an output clock signal based on the second internal signal.

Abstract: A semi-dynamic flip-flop includes a semiconductor substrate, first through fourth power rails, and at least one clock gate line. The first through fourth power rails are disposed on the semiconductor substrate, extend in a first direction, and are arranged sequentially in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction. The at least one clock gate line is disposed on the semiconductor substrate, and extends in the second direction to pass through at least two regions among a first region between the first power rail and the second power rail, a second region between the second power rail and the third power rail, and a third region between the third power rail and the fourth power rail. The at least one clock gate line receives an input clock signal.
