Abstract
First memory chips each have a memory cell as storage means for storing data and do not have a redundant memory cell as redundant storage means for repairing an erroneous bit in the memory cell. Furthermore, a logic minimal in degree is solely provided for operation on a control logic of a second memory chip. The second memory chip has a control logic for effecting memory control of the memory cells, the redundant memory cells, etc. and a redundant memory cell for repairing an error bit of the first memory chips. The memory device is structured by stacking the first and second memory chips.
