Abstract
Exemplary embodiments disclose a semiconductor device which includes a function block including a plurality of transistors; a temperature detector configured to detect a driving temperature of the function block in real time; and an adaptive body bias generator configured to provide a body bias voltage to adaptively adjust leakage currents of the transistors according to the detected driving temperature, wherein the adaptive body bias generator is further configured to generate a body bias voltage corresponding to a predetermined minimum leakage current according to the driving temperature.
