Abstract
According to one embodiment, a semiconductor memory device includes a first memory cell, a second memory cell, and a third memory cell, a first word line coupled to the first memory cell, the second memory cell, and the third memory cell, a first bit line coupled to the first memory cell, a second bit line coupled to the second memory cell, and a third bit line coupled to the third memory cell. A first voltage, a second voltage, and a third voltage are sequentially applied to the first word line, and a fourth voltage is applied to the first bit line when the first voltage is applied to the first word line, applied to the second bit line when the second voltage is applied to the first word line, and applied to the third bit line when the third voltage is applied to the first word line.
