US Patent 11114166 Semiconductor memory device

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor memory device includes a bit line electrically connected to a memory cell, a first node electrically connected to the bit line, a first driver configured to increase a voltage of the first node to a first voltage, a first buffer circuit configured to store data based on the voltage of the first node, a bus electrically connected to the first buffer circuit, a first transistor electrically connected between the first node and the bus, and a second buffer circuit electrically connected to the bus. The first buffer circuit is electrically connected to an input terminal of the first driver. The first driver changes a voltage of the bus based on the data stored in the first buffer circuit.
