Abstract
A voltage generating circuit for a semiconductor memory device. The voltage generating circuit includes a multi-boosting unit for stepping up a power supply voltage, a transfer transistor connected to a final boosting node of the multi-boosting unit and an output node, and a charge-sharing element, electrically connected to the final boosting node and a gate node of the transfer transistor, enabled during at least a part of the period the power supply voltage is stepped-up by the multi-boosting unit and performing charge sharing between the final boosting node and the gate node of the transfer transistor.
