ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor memory device includes a silicon chip and sub-arrays formed in the chip. In each of the sub-arrays, memory cells arranged in a matrix form, word lines provided for respective rows of each of the sub-arrays, and bit lines provided for respective columns of each of the sub-arrays are arranged. Further, in the chip, amplifier groups for amplifying data read out from the memory cells are arranged for the respective sub-arrays. Amplifiers connected to respective bit lines are provided in the amplifier groups and the amplifiers each have a function of continuously holding data read out from the memory cell.
