Abstract
A level detector within a back-bias voltage generator includes a toggling unit and a temperature detector. The toggling unit causes an enable signal to be activated when an absolute value of a back-bias voltage is less than an absolute value of a monitoring level. The temperature detector controls the toggling unit for increasing the absolute value of the monitoring level with an increase in temperature with high temperature sensitivity.
