ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor memory device is disclosed, which is supplied with power from a power supply and which includes memory cells and a sense amplifier connected to the cells via bit lines. The memory device further includes a circuit for enabling the sense amplifier in response to a supplied enable signal, and for allowing the sense amplifier to rewrite cell data, read on the bit lines, into the memory cell again in self-refresh mode. The enabling circuit incorporates a noise suppression circuit which suppresses rapid changes in an operation current flowing between the power supply and the sense amplifier in order to minimize power supply related noise.
