Abstract

See full text

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell including a variable resistance element, a first circuit including a first resistance element and a first transistor, a first bit line, a second transistor, and a sense circuit. The memory cell and the first circuit are connected to the first bit line. One end and the other end of the second transistor are connected to the first bit line and the sense circuit respectively. During a first operation before reading data of the memory cell a voltage of the first bit line falls to a first voltage and the first and second transistors are turned off in response to a fall of the voltage of the first bit line to the first voltage.
