Abstract
One end of each variable resistive element, which forms a memory array, in the same row is connected to the same word line and the other end of each variable resistive element in the same column is connected to the same bit line. A first word line voltage is selected and applied to the selected word line, a second word line voltage is selected and applied to the unselected word lines, a first bit line voltage is selected and applied to the selected bit line, and a second bit line voltage is selected and applied to the unselected bit lines. The voltage difference between the first word line voltage and the first bit line voltage is set at a value that is no less than the first voltage difference that changes the resistance value of a variable resistive element, and the voltage difference between the first word line voltage and the second bit line voltage, the voltage difference between the second word line voltage and the first bit line voltage and the voltage difference between the second word line voltage and the second bit line voltage are respectively set at a value that is no greater than the second voltage difference that does not change the resistance value of a variable resistive element.
