Abstract

A three-dimensional memory cell array of memory cells with two terminals having a variable resistive element is formed such that: one ends of memory cells adjacent in Z direction are connected to one of middle selection lines extending in Z direction aligned in X and Y directions; the other ends of the memory cells located at the same point in Z direction are connected to one of third selection lines aligned in Z direction; a two-dimensional array where selection transistors are aligned in X and Y directions is adjacent to the memory cell array in Z direction; gates of selection transistors adjacent in X direction, drains of selection transistors adjacent in Y direction and sources of selection transistors are connected to same first selection line, second selection line, and different middle selection lines, respectively; and first, second and third selection lines are connected to X, Y and Z decoders, respectively.
