ABSTRACT:
This disclosure concerns a semiconductor memory including memory cells; a first dummy cell and a second dummy cell generating a reference potential and storing first data and second data of mutually opposite polarities, respectively; word lines; a first and a second dummy word lines connected to gates of the first and the second dummy cells; a pair of bit lines; and a sense amplifier provided for the pair of bit lines, the sense amplifier detecting the first data using the second data as a reference or detecting the second data using the first data as a reference in a refresh operation of the first and the second dummy cells.
