Abstract

A semiconductor storage device having a line-to-line burn-in function of main word lines, applying a stress voltage between the main word lines in a wafer burn-in state. In a wafer burn-in state, by a control circuit means, main word lines are divided to odd-numbered lines and even-numbered lines to be connected to an odd-numbered pad and an even-numbered pad respectively, and a stress voltage is applied directly between the odd-numbered pad and the even-numbered pad. By a row decoder being capable of control in both of an ordinary operation mode and a wafer burn-in operation mode, in a wafer burn-in state, main word lines are divided to odd-numbered lines and even-numbered lines to become selective state, and a stress voltage is applied between main word lines.
