Abstract
In a dynamic random access semiconductor memory device comprising a sense amplifier and two pairs of bit lines sharing the sense amplifiers, each of the bit lines having a plurality of memory cells connected thereto, when a memory cell connected to one of the bit-line pairs is selected, the memory cells connected to the other bit-line pair are not connected to the sense amplifier, and, during a refresh cycle for rewriting data into a selected memory cell connected to a bit line of one of the bit-line pairs, the bit lines of the other bit-line pair are disconnected from the sense amplifier.
