Semiconductor integrated circuit with resistive change elements intersect with first and second plurality wiring lines, control circuit and plurality of current limiter circuits corresponding to the first and second wiring lines

摘要

An integrated circuit according to an embodiment includes: resistive change elements disposed in intersection regions between first and second wiring lines; a first driver driving the first wiring lines; a second driver driving the second wiring lines; a control circuit controlling the first and second drivers; first current limiter circuits corresponding to the first wiring lines, each of the first current circuits each limiting a maximum current flowing in corresponding one of the first wiring lines to a value not greater than one of a first to third current values; and second current limiter circuits corresponding to the second wiring lines, the second current limiter circuits each limiting a maximum current flowing in corresponding one of the second wiring lines to a value not greater than one of the first to third current value, the limiting current of the selected element being higher than that of the unselected element.
