After a digit line is charged to a power supply voltage by turn-on of a first switching element, the first switching element is turned off and a second switching element is turned on, whereby the digit line is connected to a ground voltage. Similarly, in order to feed data write current, a bit line is charged to a data voltage in accordance with write data through a third switching element. Then, the bit line is connected to a voltage different from the data voltage by a fourth switching element while the third switching element is turned off. Therefore, a load current from a power supply to an MRAM device is supplied during charging of a digit line capacitance and a bit line capacitance, without being consumed when the data write current flows. Consequently, a peak of the load current supplied from the power supply is suppressed.
