Abstract
A semiconductor memory device includes a voltage generation unit suitable for selecting one of the voltages which are supplied to a first and a second source voltage terminals, as a source voltage based on a driving mode signal, and generating a bit line precharge voltage by dividing the source voltage according to a resistance ratio determined based on the driving mode signal; a sense amplifier driving unit suitable for receiving the bit line precharge voltage based on a bit line precharge signal and a sense amplifier control signal, and providing a driving voltage through a pull-up power line and a pull-down power line; and a bit line sense amplifier suitable for sensing and amplifying data of a bit line pair by using the driving voltage supplied through the pull-up power line and the pull-down power line.
