PURPOSE:To reduce time delay in the transmission of data due to resistance presented by a word line running from a decoder to a memory cell by a method wherein the word line is turned back to contact a gate circuit connected to a line decoder. CONSTITUTION:Word lines W1, W1', W2, W2' are formed into a hair pin before they are connected to a gate circuit 12, and their ends are connected to a line decoder 13 as well. A memory cell 14 is of a static type using a flip-flop. The word line W1 crossing a data line D1-D1 is turned back for use both at the gate of a transistor Q1 and the gate of a transistor Q2. |
