Abstract
A novel memory device is provided. A first cell array including a plurality of memory cells and a second cell array including a plurality of memory cells are provided to overlap with each other. Two bit lines included in the first bit line pair are electrically connected to part of the memory cells included in the first cell array and to part of the memory cells included in the second cell array. Two bit lines included in the second bit line pair are electrically connected to part of the memory cells included in the first cell array and to part of the memory cells included in the second cell array. In the first cell array, one of the bit lines included in the second bit line pair includes a region overlapping with part of the first bit line pair. In the second cell array, the other of the bit lines included in the second bit line pair includes a region overlapping with part of the first bit line pair.
