A resistance random access memory (RRAM) having a source line shared structure and an associated data access method. The RRAM, in which a write operation of writing data of first state and second state to a selected memory cell is performed through first and second write paths having mutually opposite directions, includes word lines, bit lines, a memory cell array and a plurality of source lines. The memory cell array includes a plurality of memory cells each constructed of an access transistor coupled to a resistive memory device. The memory cells are disposed in a matrix of rows and columns and located at each intersection of a word line and a bit line. Each of the plurality of source lines is disposed between a pair of word lines and in the same direction as the word lines. A positive voltage is applied to a source line in a memory cell write operation. Through the source line shared structure, occupied chip area is reduced and, in a write operating mode, a bit line potential can be determined within a positive voltage level range.
