ABSTRACT:
A bit line potential monitor circuit is provided in a bit line, and a step-down circuit of the bit line is controlled base on information from the monitor circuit. As a result, the bit line is easily stepped down to an optimal potential level in accordance with a potential and a load capacity thereof without being affected by variability in devices or operation conditions.
