Word line CMOS decoder and driver circuits for semiconductor memories wherein the pitch of the decoder is twice that of the word line, the number of decoders required is reduced by a half, and the word line selection pulse can be applied prior to word line selection. The decoder and driver circuits include a transistor clock load device having its gate electrode driven by a decoder clock pulse or address pulse and a plurality of decoder address switch devices having their gate electrodes driven, respectively, by a plurality of address signals. The clock load device and the address switch devices are connected to a common node at the input to an inverter stage.
