ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor memory is provided including a plurality of row lines, memory cells driven by selecting a row line, sense amplifiers connected to the memory cells via column lines, and a column line voltage setting circuit for setting a predetermined voltage on the column lines. The predetermined voltage is defined by a voltage necessary to activate semiconductor switch elements constituting the column line voltage setting circuit, and is made nearly equal to the threshold voltage of the sense amplifiers. Thus, a high-speed, low power consumption semiconductor memory can be realized.
