A memory cell is provided, in which a resistance value is appropriately controlled, thereby a variable resistance element may be applied with a voltage necessary for changing the element into a high or low resistance state. A storage element 10, a nonlinear resistance element 20, and an MOS transistor 30 are electrically connected in series. The storage element 10 has a nonlinear current-voltage characteristic opposite to a nonlinear current-voltage characteristic of the MOS transistor 30, and changes into a high or low resistance state in accordance with a polarity of applied voltage. The nonlinear resistance element 20 has a nonlinear current-voltage characteristic similar to the nonlinear current-voltage characteristic of the storage element 10. |
