ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell block including a plurality of memory cells connected in series between first node and second node, the memory cells including a magnetoresistive element and a switching transistor, which are connected in parallel, the magnetoresistive element being a spin injection type and including a fixed layer whose magnetization direction is fixed, a recording layer whose magnetization direction changes, and a non-magnetic layer interposed between the fixed layer and the recording layer, a bit line connected to the first node via a selection transistor, a word line connected to a gate of the switching transistor, and a write line connected to the second node.
