ABSTRACT:
In a semiconductor memory device including a memory cell array, a sense amplifier for sensing a voltage of a selected one of read-only memory cells of the memory cell array, a dummy memory cell array, a reference voltage generating circuit for sensing a voltage at the output of the dummy memory cell array, and a comparator for comparing a sense voltage of the sense amplifier with a reference voltage of the reference voltage generating circuit, a bias circuit supplies a bias current from a power supply terminal to the output of the sense amplifier and also supplies a bias current from the power supply terminal to the output of the reference voltage generating circuit.
