Abstract

A memory includes a cell array including first and second sub arrays including memory cells and simultaneously driven in a read or a write operation. First lines are connected to the cells corresponding to one of physical rows, where the physical row is the cells arranged in a first direction in the cell array. Second lines are connected to the cells arranged in a second direction intersecting with the first direction in the cell array. A decoder selects a selection line from among the first lines in accordance with a logical row address corresponding to each of the physical rows and applies a read voltage or a write voltage to the selection line. A sense amplifier detects data from the second lines. Logical row addresses corresponding to physical rows adjacent to a certain physical row among the physical rows differ between the first sub array and the second sub array.
