Abstract
According to one embodiment, a semiconductor memory device includes a plurality of memory cell blocks, a plurality of first wirings, a plurality of second wirings, and a contact. Each of the memory cell blocks includes a plurality of memory cell units. Each of the plurality of memory cell units includes a plurality of memory cells and is provided in a first direction at a prescribed spacing. The plurality of memory cell blocks is arranged in a second direction intersecting with the first direction. The plurality of first wirings extends in the second direction and is provided in the first direction at a prescribed spacing. The plurality of second wirings is provided at least one of above and below the first wiring. The contact is provided at both end portions of the second wiring in the second direction and connects the first wiring to the second wiring. A width dimension of the second wiring along the first direction is larger than a width dimension of the first wiring along the first direction.
