A semiconductor memory device may include a power line, an over driver,
and/or an internal voltage driver. The power line may be connected to at
least one sense amplifier. The at least one sense amplifier may be
connected to a memory cell included in a memory block. The memory block
may be included in one of a plurality of memory block units including one
or more memory blocks. The over driver may be configured to apply an
external voltage to the power line in a sensing period of the sense
amplifier. The internal voltage driver may be configured to apply an
internal voltage to the power line in an amplification period of the
sense amplifier. The over driver may be configured to perform an over
driving operation by each memory block unit.
