Abstract

Word lines extend in a first direction and are commonly connected to memory cells in a plurality of NAND cell units. Bit lines extend in a second direction crossing to the first direction and connected to one ends of the NAND cell units. In one block, both a first and a second NAND cell unit are connected to one of the bit lines. A bit-line-side select transistor in the first NAND cell unit and a source-line-side select transistor in the second NAND cell unit are disposed adjacently to each other. The source-line-side select transistor in the first NAND cell unit and the bit-line-side select transistor in the second NAND cell unit are disposed adjacently to each other.
