A semiconductor integrated circuit has a memory which can enter active state or standby state, and the memory has voltage generation circuits for bit lines and source lines with which memory cells are connected. The voltage generation circuits make the potential of the bit lines and the potential of the source lines equal to each other in response to an instruction to transition from active state to standby state. The voltage generation circuits produce a potential difference between the bit lines and the source lines in response to an instruction to transition from standby state to active state. In standby state, the potential of the bit lines and that of the source lines are equal to each other. Therefore, sub-threshold leakage does not occur between the source and drain of each memory cell. In active state, the source line potential is not varied.

The present invention provides a semiconductor integrated circuit device having an SRAM in which leak current is reduced. In an SRAM comprising a plurality of memory cells each constructed by a storage in which input and output terminals of two inverter circuits are cross-connected and a selection MOSFET provided between the storage and complementary bit lines and whose gate is connected to a word line, a substrate bias switching circuit is provided.

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor integrated circuit device includes the steps of constructing a plurality of lead frames having leads which each include an inner portion and an outer portion and electrically connecting a semiconductor chip to the inner portions of the leads of each frame. The lead frames are then stacked one above each other to form a vertical stack and plates are then inserted between each of the lead frames with each plate having an opening in the center whereby a central cavity is formed in the stack. The stack is then placed between a top mold member and a bottom mold member and a resin is injected into the central cavity whereupon the resin is cured to form a single resin package encapsulating the semiconductor chips. The resin package is then released from the mold members.
