Abstract
An internal voltage generation circuit includes a vblh voltage generation circuit that generates a voltage vblh that is supplied as a high-voltage power supply of a sense amplifier, and a voltage distribution control circuit that has a first current source that pulls down an output node and a second current source that pulls up the output node. The output node is pulled down by the first current source operating, and the voltage thereof is maintained at a voltage that corresponds to a lower limit of a detection voltage value. The output node is pulled up by the second current source operating, and the voltage thereof is maintained at a voltage that corresponds to an upper limit of the detection voltage value.
