Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes an identification information generation circuit having a power supply control circuit whose output voltage is controlled by a control signal, and a memory array having a first cell power line and a second cell power line. The power supply control circuit outputs a first supply voltage and a second supply voltage to a first cell power line and a second power line, respectively, when the control signal is in a first state, and outputs an intermediate voltage to the first cell power line and the second cell power line when the control signal is in a second state.
Abstract:
The invention provides a semiconductor integrated circuit device provided with an SRAM that satisfies the requirements for both the SNM and the write margin with a low supply voltage. The semiconductor integrated circuit device include: multiple static memory cells provided in correspondence with multiple word lines and multiple complimentary bit lines; multiple memory cell power supply lines that each supply an operational voltage to each of the multiple memory cells connected to the multiple complimentary bit lines each; multiple power supply circuits comprised of resistive units that each supply a power supply voltage to the memory cell power supply lines each; and a pre-charge circuit that supplies a pre-charge voltage corresponding to the power supply voltage to the complimentary bit lines, wherein the memory cell power supply lines are made to have coupling capacitances to thereby transmit a write signal on corresponding complimentary bit lines.
