    摘要: A semiconductor memory device and a layout structure of word line contacts, in which the semiconductor memory device includes an active region, a plurality of memory cells, and word line contacts. The active region is disposed in a first direction as a length direction on a semiconductor substrate and is used as a word line. The plurality of memory cells are disposed in the first direction on the active region and are each constructed of one variable resistance device and one diode device. In the word line contacts, at least one each is disposed between respective units, wherein each unit is constructed of predetermined numbers of memory cells on the active region. A bridge effect, such as a short-circuit between adjacent word lines, can be prevented or substantially reduced.

    摘要: In one embodiment, the semiconductor device includes a non-volatile memory cell array, a write buffer configured to store data being written into the non-volatile memory cell array, and a write address buffer configured to store a write address associated with each data stored in the write buffer. An output circuit is configured to selectively output one of data read from the non-volatile memory array and data from the write buffer. A by-pass control circuit is configured to control the output circuit based on whether an input read address matches a valid write address stored in the write address buffer. An invalidation unit is configured to invalidate an address stored in the write address buffer if the stored write address matches an input write address.
