In a memory, a first node holds first data from a first cell. A second node holds second data from a second cell near the first cell. A differential circuit includes a first current path passing a first current corresponding to a voltage of the first node and a second current path passing a second current corresponding to a voltage of the second node, and outputs an output signal corresponding to a voltage difference between the first and the second nodes from an output part. A first register latches the output signal and output the signal as a hold signal. A first offset part is connected to the first current path and offsets the first current when the hold signal has a first logic level. A second offset part is connected to the second current path and offsets the second current when the hold signal has a second logic level.
