Abstract
A semiconductor integrated circuit device and a system including the same, configured for sensing a pure leakage current of a cell array and improving a read error is disclosed. The system a controller and a memory configured to interface with the controller. The memory includes a semiconductor integrated circuit device includes a leakage current sensing unit configured to sense a pure leakage current of a cell array according to a command of the controller; and a determination circuit unit configured to compare a voltage level of an input node with a reference voltage and determine a state of read data while in a read mode. The voltage level of the input node is decided by comparing an output current and a read current and the output current is decided by summing the pure leakage current and a reference current.
