In a semiconductor memory device 100, a non-volatile element section 4 stores information necessary for rescuing a main memory cell, as storage information, in a non-volatile element. When rescue information S3 is newly outputted by a redundancy rescue section, a rescue determination section 5 determines whether or not a main memory cell is to be rescued, based on storage information S4 stored in the non-volatile element section 4, and the rescue information S3 which is newly outputted. The non-volatile element section 4 renews the storage information based on a determination result from the rescue determination section 5. Thus, on the assumption that power is turned off each time a voltage condition is changed, the semiconductor memory device 100 is capable of determining whether or not the rescue is to be performed, based on results of testings performed under a plurality of voltage conditions.
