Abstract
Provided herein is a memory device and a method of operating the memory device. The memory device includes: a reference voltage generation circuit configured to generate a standby mode reference voltage in a standby mode, and generate and output an active mode reference voltage in an active mode; and an internal voltage generation circuit configured to receive the standby mode reference voltage or the active mode reference voltage from the reference voltage generation circuit, and generate an internal voltage. When an error is detected from the internal voltage generated in the standby mode, the reference voltage generation circuit may generate and output the active mode reference voltage.
