A semiconductor memory device composed of bipolar transistors is disclosed. A read/write control circuit includes a voltage producing section which produces a reading-out voltage used for reading out the data stored in the selected memory cell. The voltage producing section includes a first transistor of an emitter follower type as its output stage, and the data-read operation is thus attained in a high speed. The voltage producing section further includes a diode whose ON voltage is substantially equal to that of a clamping diode provided in a memory cell and a second transistor having an emitter resistor and a collector resistor and supplying the collector resistor with a current determined by the ON voltage of the diode and the emitter resistor. The potential at the collector of the second transistor is applied to the first transistor.
