SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE HAVING OPEN BITLINE STRUCTURE

Disclosed herein is a semiconductor device that includes: a plurality of memory arrays disposed in a first direction and a second direction that crosses the first direction; a plurality of row decoders disposed along a first side of the memory arrays; a plurality of first column decoders each disposed along a second side that does not face the first side of an associated one of the memory arrays; and a plurality of second column decoders each disposed along a third side that faces the second side of an associated one of the memory arrays. Each of the memory arrays is sandwiched between a corresponding one of the first column decoders and a corresponding one of the second column decoders.
