Abstract

A semiconductor memory device includes resistance memory elements that are coupled to selection transistors addressed by word lines and bit lines. The memory elements are read by read/write lines arranged parallel to the word lines. Two successive memory elements along a read/write line are coupled to selection transistors that are coupled to different word lines.
