Abstract

A magnetic random access memory includes: a first and second wirings, a plurality of third wirings, a plurality of memory cells and a terminating unit. The first and second wirings extend in a Y direction. The plurality of third wirings extends in an X direction. The memory cell is provided correspondingly to an intersection between the first and second wirings and the third wiring. The terminating unit is provided between the plurality of memory cells and connected to the first and second wirings. The memory cell includes transistors and a magnetoresistive element. The transistors are connected in series between the first and second wirings and controlled based on a signal of the third wiring. The magnetoresistive element is connected to a wiring through which the transistors are connected. At a time of a writing operation, when the write current 1w is supplied from one of the first and second wiring to the other through the transistors, the terminating unit grounds the other.
