Abstract: According to one embodiment, a memory device includes: a variable resistance memory region; a semiconductor layer; an insulating layer; first and second word lines; and a first select gate line. When information stored in the first memory cell is read, or when information is written into the first memory cell, after a voltage of the first select gate line is set to a first voltage and voltages of the first and second word lines are set to a second voltage, the voltage of the first select gate line is increased from the first voltage to a third voltage. After the voltage of the first select gate line is increased to at least the second voltage, the voltage of the first word line is decreased from the second voltage to the first voltage, and the voltage of the second word line is increased from the second voltage to a fourth voltage.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, in a semiconductor memory device, multiple first memory cells are connected in parallel between a first local bit line and a local source line. Multiple second memory cells are connected in parallel between a second local bit line and the local source line. Each of the multiple first memory cells includes a first cell transistor and a first resistance change element connected in series. Each of the multiple second memory cells includes a second cell transistor and a second resistance change element connected in series. A first selection gate line extends in a second direction across multiple cell blocks arranged in the second direction. A second selection gate line is placed on the opposite side of the first selection gate line with the local source line interposed therebetween. The second selection gate line extends in the second direction across multiple cell blocks arranged in the second direction.
