    摘要： A plurality of switching transistors is provided, each connects power supply terminals of a plurality of first circuit blocks to a power supply line, respectively. Among the first circuit blocks, the power supply terminals of the first circuit blocks operating at different timings are connected by an internal power supply line. A power supply control circuit simultaneously turns on the switching transistors connected to the internal power supply line, in response to operation(s) of at least any one of the first circuit blocks connected to the internal power supply line. Since the switching transistors can be shared among the first circuit blocks not operating simultaneously, operation speed of the first circuit blocks can be increased. Since a total size of the switching transistors can be made small, standby current can be decreased. Accordingly, a semiconductor integrated circuit operating at a high speed can be constituted without increasing the standby current.

    摘要： A transistor of a driver in the semiconductor integrated circuit according to the present invention has its gate connected to a controlling circuit, and has its drain connected to a sense amplifier. The controlling circuit supplies the gate of the transistor with a gate-to-source voltage exceeding or below other power supply voltages. The drain-to-source resistance of the transistor in the on state becomes sufficiently lower as compared with that in the case of supplying the power supply voltages between the gate and source of the transistor. Accordingly, the amplifying speed of the sense amplifier is heightened without altering the sense amplifier and the driver. Besides, the amplifying speed of the sense amplifier is heightened without raising the power supply voltage which supplies the carriers to the driver. The semiconductor memory device according to the present invention switches the driving supply voltage for the sense amplifier from the first supply voltage, to the second supply voltage lower than the first voltage. The timing at which the first supply voltage is switched to the second supply voltage is controlled in accordance with the voltage on a dummy bit line which is driven by a monitoring sense amplifier. Accordingly, even when the driving speed of the sense amplifier using the overdriving system has fluctuated due to the fluctuation of the first supply voltage, the driving supply voltage of the sense amplifier can be always switched to the second supply voltage at the appropriate timing.

    摘要翻译： 根据本发明的半导体集成电路中的驱动器的晶体管的栅极连接到控制电路，并且其漏极连接到读出放大器。 控制电路为晶体管的栅极提供超过或低于其他电源电压的栅极至源极电压。 与在晶体管的栅极和源极之间提供电源电压的情况相比，导通状态下的晶体管的漏极 - 源极电阻变得足够低。 因此，增强了读出放大器的放大速度，而不改变读出放大器和驱动器。 此外，增强读出放大器的放大速度，而不会提高向驱动器提供载波的电源电压。 根据本发明的半导体存储器件将读出放大器的驱动电源电压从第一电源电压切换到低于第一电压的第二电源电压。 根据由监视读出放大器驱动的虚拟位线上的电压来控制第一电源电压切换到第二电源电压的定时。 因此，即使当使用过驱动系统的读出放大器的驱动速度由于第一电源电压的波动而波动时，也可以在适当的定时将读出放大器的驱动电源电压始终切换到第二电源电压。

To stabilize the output voltage Vii of the power supply circuit having a NMOS transistor, the drain electrode, gate and source electrodes of which are at VCC, VG and approximately Vii=VG−Vth, where Vth is the threshold voltage of the NMOS transistor 45, a leak circuit is employed. The leak circuit has a NMOS transistor connected between Vii and ground. Wasteful power consumption by the current flowing to the leak circuit is negligibly small, e.g. 1 to 10 &mgr;A, and the variation of the supply voltage Vii reduces effectively.
