Abstract:
To include a first X decoder constituted by a transistor whose off-leakage current has a first temperature characteristic, a pre-decoder circuit and a peripheral circuit constituted by a transistor whose off-leakage current has a second temperature characteristic, a power supply control circuit that inactivates the X decoder when a temperature exceeds a first threshold during a standby state, and a power supply control circuit that inactivates the pre-decoder and the peripheral circuit when a temperature exceeds a second threshold during the standby state. According to the present invention, whether power supply control is performed on a plurality of circuit blocks is determined based on different temperatures, therefore optimum power supply control can be performed on each of circuit blocks.
