SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE, ELECTRONIC COMPONENT, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE

摘要

To provide a semiconductor device having a novel structure. To provide a semiconductor device excellent in reducing power consumption. A memory cell including an SRAM capable of backing up data to the nonvolatile memory and a peripheral circuit of the memory cell are configured to offer different power gating states. In a first period, which is extremely short, the bit line is brought into an electrically floating state by turning off the switch. In a second period, which is longer than the first period, power gating is performed on the memory cell. In a third period, which is longer than the second period, power gating is performed on the memory cell and the peripheral circuits.

主权项

1. A semiconductor device comprising:
a memory device including a memory cell array, a drive control circuit, a data control circuit, and first to fourth switches; and a power supply voltage control circuit, wherein the memory cell array includes a memory cell, wherein the memory cell includes a first memory portion and a second memory portion, wherein the drive control circuit is configured to read data by precharging a bit line and an inverted bit line, the bit line and the inverted bit line being electrically connected to the first memory portion, wherein the data control circuit is configured to store and restore data between the first memory portion and the second memory portion by control of the power supply voltage control circuit, wherein the power supply voltage control circuit is configured to control on or off of the first to fourth switches, wherein the first switch is configured to bring the bit line and the inverted bit line into an electrically floating state by being turned off, wherein the second switch is configured to stop supply of a first power supply voltage to the memory cell array by being turned off, wherein the third switch is configured to stop supply of a second power supply voltage to the drive control circuit by being turned off, wherein the fourth switch is configured to stop supply of a third power supply voltage to the data control circuit by being turned off, and wherein the power supply voltage control circuit is configured to switch between a first state in which the first switch is off, a second state in which the first and second switches are off, and a third state in which the first to fourth switches are off.
