    摘要: A sub-word-line driver and semiconductor memory devices including the same are provided. The sub-word-line driver may include a word line pull-up transistor, a word line pull-down transistor, and a keeping transistor configured to maintain a word line at a specified voltage level. The sub-word-line driver may include a peripheral active region on a substrate, a first peripheral gate electrode that corresponds to a gate node of the word line pull-down transistor on the peripheral active region, a second peripheral gate electrode that corresponds to a gate node of the keeping transistor on the peripheral active region, and a first lower contact coupled to a first region of the peripheral active region. A first (VBB) voltage from the first region may be supplied to a source node of the keeping transistor.
