Abstract
A plurality of memory devices are connected parallel to each other commonly to signal lines extending in one direction, and signals are transmitted in one direction along the signal lines. The sum of the time of signal propagation from a transmission unit to a selected memory device and the time of signal propagation from the selected memory devices to a reception unit is constant for every memory device. Therefore, offset in access times to the memory chips in the memory system can be eliminated.
