A reference potential generator is constituted of two signal lines 21 and 22; a charge supplying circuit to supply charge to signal lines 21 and 22; a first connection circiut 24a and 24b connecting the charge supplying circuit 23 and two signal lines 21 and 22 in order to supply charge to the two signal lines; and a second connection circuit 25 connecting two signal lines 21 and 22 together by the second control signal, and two signal lines are disconnected after the potentials of the two signal lines determined by the supplied charge and each of load capacitances of signal lines are averaged. A semiconductor memory device of the invention incorporating the above reference potential generator generating an exact reference potential, is able to amplify and output the potential difference between the reference potential and the potential of data readout in the bit line, and by this, "1" or "0" of readout data can be precisely determined.

The life of a semiconductor memory device can be prolonged by using a plurality of memory cells and decreasing the stress applied to the dielectric film of the memory cells storing a data value "1." This is achieved in the present invention by decreasing the number of rewritings required to retain stored data. Specifically, the present invention utilizes a reverse and rewrite means to reverse and rewrite data back into memory cells after being read, memory means for memorizing a signal indicating whether the currently stored data is in a reversed state, and judging means for judging whether the data should be reversely output.

A semiconductor memory device comprises a main memory cell, a redundant memory cell, a redundant address data cell comprising a non-volatile memory which electrically memorizes an address of a redundant memory cell which replaced a failed memory cell in the main memory cell, a control circuit 15 and a redundant memory cell selecting circuit 16. The redundant memory cell selecting circuit serves to hold first address data which has been read from the redundant address data cell, and to compare the first address data with second address data for a read or write operation which is input via the control circuit and thereby select the main memory cell or the redundant memory cell.
