Abstract

This semiconductor device is provided with: a variable resistance first switch (103), which has a first terminal and a second terminal, and which has the resistance value thereof varied when an applied voltage exceeds a reference value; a variable resistance second switch (104), which has a third terminal and a fourth terminal, and which forms an intermediate node (105) by having the third terminal connected to the second terminal, and has the resistance state thereof varied when an applied voltage exceeds a reference value; first wiring (101) connected to the first terminal; second wiring (102), which is connected to the fourth terminal, and which extends in the direction intersecting the first wiring (101) in a planar view; a first selection switch element (106) connected to the first wiring (101); and a second selection switch element (107) connected to the second wiring (102).
