Semiconductor integrated circuit and leak current reducing method

摘要

The present invention provides a semiconductor integrated circuit device which includes at least an SRAM memory cell array comprising a plurality of memory cells each constituted of a circuit including load MOS transistors, drive MOS transistors and transfer MOS transistors, a substrate bias generating circuit which is electrically connected to the load MOS transistors and supplies a substrate potential to the load MOS transistors during at least operation and standby, and a source bias generating circuit which is electrically connected to the drive MOS transistors and supplies a source potential to the drive MOS transistors at standby. It is possible to reduce a leak current in an SRAM memory cell during both operation and standby and reduce current consumption.
