Abstract
In a semiconductor storage device, a potential corresponding to a position of a word line selected from the memory cell array is applied to a bank selection line which is connected to the gate of a bank selection transistor, as an ON potential for the bank selection transistor so that it is possible to reduce the variation in the bit line potential depending upon the position of a memory cell in a bank of a ROM using a bank system.
