    摘要: A phase-change random access memory (PRAM) device capable of reducing a resistance of a word line may include a plurality of main word lines of a semiconductor memory device or PRAM bent n times in a layer different from a layer in which a plurality of sub-word lines are disposed. The semiconductor memory device or PRAM may further include jump contacts for connecting the plurality of cut sub-word lines. In a PRAM device including the plurality of main word lines and the plurality of sub-word lines being in different layers, the number of jump contacts for connecting the plurality of main word lines to a transistor of a sub-word line decoder is the same in each sub-word line or the plurality of main word lines are bent several times so that a parasitic resistance on a word line and power consumption may be reduced, and a sensing margin may be increased.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device and a method of programming the same, the semiconductor memory device includes a plurality of memory cells, each of the memory cells having a plurality of phase change variable resistors and a selection transistor. Each of the phase change variable resistors has a first end connected to one of a plurality of bit lines and a second end connected to a drain of the selection transistor. The selection transistor has a gate connected to a word line and a source connected to a reference voltage. The memory device is programmed by activating a word line associated with a selected memory cell, thereby turning on the selection transistor, applying a reset pulse to bit lines of the selected memory cell, and applying a set pulse to selected bit lines of the selected memory cell.
