Provided is a reliable nonvolatile memory with a lower power consumption. A ferromagnetic interconnection which is magnetized antiparallel or parallel to a magnetization direction of a ferromagnetic pinned layer in a giant magnetoresistive device or a tunnel magnetoresistive device constituting the magnetic memory cell, is connected to a ferromagnetic free layer with a non-magnetic layer being interposed in between, the ferromagnetic free layer serving as a recording layer. Thereby, the magnetization of the recording layer is switched by use of a spin transfer torque.
