A Magnetic Random Access Memory (MRAM), in which very little current flows through MTJ elements and very little voltage is applied across them, the MRAM being provided with sense-amplifiers capable of amplifying the potential difference between their corresponding pairs of bit lines at high speed. This is accomplished by a sense amplifier including CMOS inverters cross-connected or connected in loop, a P-channel MOS transistor for shutting the power off during standby, and N-channel MOS transistors for initializing the output of the sense amplifier during standby. A ground terminal of the inverter is connected to a bit line through a transistor of a bit switch, and a ground terminal of the inverter is connected to a bit line through a transistor of a bit switch. |
