Abstract
A first signal input circuit outputs a first control signal in response to self-refresh and active signals. A second signal input circuit outputs a second control signal in response to the self-refresh and active signals. The power supply circuit applies a first supply voltage to an output terminal in response to the first control signal. An elevated voltage generator generates a elevated voltage by pumping a second supply voltage, and applies the elevated voltage to the output terminal, in response to the first and second control signals.
