Abstract
A memory device with high storage capacity and low power consumption is provided. The memory device includes a first layer and a second layer including the first layer. The first layer includes a circuit, and the second layer includes a first memory cell. The circuit includes a bit line driver circuit and/or a word line driver circuit which transmits(s) a signal to the first memory cell. The first memory cell includes a first transistor, a second transistor, a conductor, and an MTJ element. The MTJ element includes a free layer. The free layer is electrically connected to the conductor. The first terminal of the first transistor is electrically connected to a first terminal of the second transistor through the conductor. The free layer is positioned above the conductor. The circuit includes a transistor containing silicon in a channel formation region, and each of the first transistor and the second transistor contains a metal oxide in a channel formation region.
