Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a semiconductor memory device intended to shorten readout time. The semiconductor memory device includes: a first memory cell (MT) electrically connected to a first bit line (BL) and a first word line (WL); a second memory cell (MT) electrically connected to a second bit line (BL) and the first word line; and a first circuit (42) applying a voltage to the first word line. During readout of the first memory cell, the first circuit supplies a first voltage (VA) to the first word line, and during readout of the second memory cell, supplies a second voltage (VK1) greater than the first voltage to the first word line.
