Abstract

A memory includes first signal-lines divided into groups. Global signal lines correspond to the first signal-lines. The global signal-lines include a selected global signal-line and a non-selected global signal-line. First transistors correspond to the first signal-lines. The first transistors are connected between a corresponding first signal-line and any of the global signal-lines. Selection signal-lines correspond to the groups. The selection signal-lines are connected to gate electrodes of the first transistors included in a corresponding group. Second transistors are connected between the first signal-lines that belong to adjacent two of the groups. When one of the first signal-lines which is electrically connected to the selected global signal-line is a selected first signal-line, the first transistors corresponding to one of the groups which includes the selected first signal-line is in a conducting state. One of the second transistors which is connected to the selected first signal-line is in a non-conducting state.
