US Patent 7706200 Internal voltage generator

An internal voltage generation device includes a plurality of output nodes; a bit line precharge voltage generation unit for generating a bit line precharge voltage; a first voltage drop unit for transferring the bit line precharge voltage to a first output node after decreasing the bit line precharge voltage by a first voltage drop amount in response to a test mode signal; and a second voltage drop unit for transferring the bit line precharge voltage to a second output node after decreasing the bit line precharge voltage by a second voltage drop amount in response to the test mode signal, wherein the second voltage drop amount is greater than the first voltage drop amount.
