Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a memory cell array including a plurality of first and second memory cells each comprising a variable resistance element that establishes an electrical resistance that changes in response to an application of a write voltage after a forming voltage has been applied, the first memory cell to which the forming voltage is applied, and the second memory cell to which the forming voltage is not applied, and the second memory cell being configured to store one of first and second logic values constituting first information, the first and second logic values being different from each other.
