Semiconductor memory device

摘要

Memory array areas each including a plurality of bit lines provided along a first direction, a plurality of word lines provided along a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, and a plurality of memory cells provided in association with portions where the plurality of bit lines and the plurality of word lines intersect respectively, are provided in plural form in the first direction and disposed alternately relative to sense amplifier areas. First common input/output lines connected through bit lines and first selection circuits associated with such sense amplifier areas are provided. Second common input/output lines connected through the plurality of first common input/output lines and second selection circuits corresponding to a plurality of memory arrays disposed along the first direction are provided. Each of the second common input/output lines is extended to form a signal transfer channel for transferring a signal read from each memory cell and a signal written therein.
