ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor memory device of a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structure is provided that can have majority carriers stored in a body region discharged without increasing a memory cell area. A body refresh circuit adjusts a row related control signal from a local row related control circuit and a bit line precharge voltage according to body refresh designating signals. When body refresh is specified and is to be carried out in parallel to CBR refresh, a column select line is driven to a selected state according to an output signal of a shift register. Low level data from a write circuit is transmitted to each bit line in a selected bit line pair. In a self refresh operation, a bit line precharge voltage applied to a bit line equalize circuit group is reduced to the voltage of an Low level.
