Abstract
A semiconductor integrated circuit device configured for sensing a pure leakage current of a cell array and improving a read error is disclosed. The semiconductor integrated circuit device may include a leakage current sensing unit configured for sensing a pure leakage current of a cell array, and a determination circuit unit configured for comparing a voltage level of the input node with a reference voltage and for determining a state of read data while in a read mode. Whereby an output current may be compared with a read current of the cell array at the input node, and the output current may include the summation of the pure leakage current and a reference current.
