Abstract
A voltage generation circuit and a semiconductor memory device capable of decreasing the layout size and the consumed current are provided. A voltage generation circuit includes a plurality of voltage generation units which generate different output voltages based on an external power supply voltage. Each of the plurality of voltage generation unit comprises a plurality of resistors that are connected in series to detect the output voltages. At least one of these resistors is coupled to and shared by the plurality of voltage generation units.
