    摘要: A dummy capacitor drive potential VDC is given to one electrode of a dummy capacitor, and a reference potential for determining a data value of a memory cell is generated in the other electrode thereof. A potential generator circuit for generating the potential VDC is composed of a BGR circuit outputting a potential VBGRTEMP having temperature dependency, and resistors R3 and R4, which are series-connected between an output terminal of the BGR circuit and a ground point. The potential VDC is output from a connection point of the resistors R3 and R4. Temperature dependency of the potential VDC is adjusted based on a resistance ratio of resistors R1-1, R1-2 and R2, and the absolute value is adjusted based on a resistance ratio of resistors R3 and R4.

    摘要: A semiconductor device comprises a memory cell array, bit line, /bit line complementary to the bit line, reference voltage generating circuit and sense amplifier. The bit line is connected to the memory cells and applied with a voltage read from each memory cell of the memory cell array. The /bit line is supplied with a reference voltage. The reference voltage generating circuit generates the reference voltage that has temperature dependence for compensating a change in the voltage, read to the bit line, due to temperature. The reference voltage generating circuit controls the reference voltage such that the reference voltage assumes a midpoint of trails of a signal value distribution indicative of “0” data and a signal value distribution indicative of “1” data. The sense amplifier compares the voltage, read to the bit line, with the reference voltage supplied to the /bit line, and amplifies the difference therebetween.
