A regulated substrate bias voltage generating system for maintaining a minimum data retaining current through an associated MOS memory. The negative substrate bias voltage is generated by a charge pump operating under the control of a two-phased output oscillator, the operation of which is enabled and disabled by the output signals from a MOS memory overcurrent sensor, a MOS memory under-current sensor and, a bias voltage level sensor.
