Abstract
In a semicondcutor memory device there is provided a specific layout of each element effectively excluding a number of 'bridge' crossings for specific lines connecting the elements particularly buffer circuits and a decoder circuit, and thereby reducing the amount of resistance in the lines connecting specific elements, and increasing the signal transmission speed in the specific lines. A control circuit is arranged either beneath or above a portion of the ground line or the electric power line and the control circuit is connected to either of these lines by further vertical lines, thereby eliminating certain bridges.
