Patent number: 8310884Abstract: A sense amplifier circuit senses and amplifies a signal read from memory cells arranged at intersections of word-lines and bit-lines. A write circuit reads first data held in a first memory cell of the memory cells, and writes second data corresponding to the first data in a second memory cell different from the first memory cell. A data latch circuit holds data read from the first memory cell. A logic operation circuit performs a logic operation using data read from the second memory cell and data held in the data latch circuit as input values and outputs third data as an operation value.
