A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor element; a body bias controller configured to generate a standby mode body bias control signal in a standby mode; and a body bias voltage generator configured to receive the standby mode body bias control signal from the body bias controller, generate a standby mode body bias voltage, and apply the standby mode body bias voltage to a body of the semiconductor element. The semiconductor device is capable of retaining data stored in a semiconductor element and blocking leakage current in the standby mode by controlling a body bias voltage, thereby increasing the integration degree of the semiconductor device.
