Abstract
A semiconductor memory device includes a memory block having first and second word lines extending in a first direction and bit lines extending in a perpendicular second direction; a first driver region at a side of the memory block in the first direction driving the first word lines; a second driver region at another side of the memory block in the first direction driving the second word lines; a sensing region at a side of the memory block in the second direction controlling the bit lines responsive to signals from drive lines; a first conjunction region at an intersection of the first driver and sensing regions including a first driver driving the drive lines responsive to signals from control lines; and a second conjunction region at an intersection of the second driver and sensing regions, including a second driver driving the drive lines responsive to signals from the control lines.
