Abstract
A block selection circuit and a semiconductor device having the same may include a row decoder which includes a high voltage generating circuit configured to output a block selection voltage in response to upper addresses, switching circuits configured to receive the block selection voltage and a precharge high voltage, and forward the block selection voltage through one of the switching circuits that is selected in response to selection signals, and pass transistor groups configured to select a memory block in response to the forwarded block selection voltage.
