Abstract:
A power control circuit includes a power control signal generation circuit configured to generate a voltage control signal according to a deep sleep command for operating a semiconductor apparatus in a deep sleep mode; a voltage divider circuit having a division ratio that is changed according to the voltage control signal, and configured to generate a divided voltage by dividing an internal voltage at the changed division ratio; a comparator configured to generate a detection signal by comparing a reference voltage to the divided voltage; an oscillator configured to generate an oscillation signal according to the detection signal; and a pump configured to generate the internal voltage according to the oscillation signal.
