Abstract

半導体記憶装置において、SRAMセルの電源電位を保持しつつ、読み出しマージン及び書き込みマージンを増加させる。半導体記憶装置は、SRAMセル11からなるSRAMセルアレー100と、行アドレスに対応するワード線のそれぞれに対して設けられ、ワード線を活性化するように構成されたワード線ドライバ14と、ワード線ドライバ14の電源電位を低電位と高電位との間で切り換えるように構成された電源セレクタ15と、列アドレスに対応するビット線対のそれぞれに対して設けられたラッチ型のセンスアンプ12と、を備える。読み出し動作時に、電源セレクタ15がワード線ドライバ14の電源電位を低電位とした後、センスアンプ12は検出した電位差を自身に対する活性化信号に同期して増幅し、電源セレクタ15はその活性化信号に同期してワード線ドライバ14の電源電位を低電位から高電位に切り換える。
