A memory cell has a heater element which generates heat by supplying electric current, a chalcogenide layer whose phase is changed by applying heat, and two transistors for driving the heater element. Bit lines extend in a predetermined direction and electrically connect with memory cells. Word lines extend at right angles to bit lines and electrically connect with memory cells. In a first cell row, memory cells are arranged at interval 2d along the bit lines. In a second row, memory cells are arranged such that the first cell row is shifted by distance d along the bit lines. First cell rows and second cell rows are alternately arranged at an interval e along the direction of word line so as to arrange the memory cells in a checker manner.
