1. A semiconductor device comprising:
- a memory cell array including at least one memory cell disposed in a region at which at least one bit line and at least one word line cross; and
a sensing unit configured to sense data stored in the at least one memory cell, the sensing unit including a connection control unit configured to control a connection between the at least one bit line and a sensing line based on a control signal, the control signal having a voltage level that varies based on a value of data being sensed by the sensing unit.

Abstract
In one example embodiment, the semiconductor device includes a memory cell array having at least one memory cell disposed in a region at which at least one bit line and at least one word line cross. A sensing unit senses data stored in the at least one memory cell. The sensing unit includes a connection control unit configured to control a connection between the at least one bit line and a sensing line based on a control signal, the control signal having a voltage level that varies based on a value of data being sensed by the sensing unit.
