A semiconductor memory device comprises a column readout voltage supply circuit which supplies a predetermined first voltage when readout is selected and supplies a predetermined second voltage which is different from the fist voltage when the readout is not selected, to each column selection line, a row readout voltage supply circuit which supplies the second voltage to each row selection line at the time of readout, a sense circuit which detects a current flowing in the selected row selection line separately from a current flowing in the non-selected row selection lines to detect an electric resistance state of the selected memory cell at the time of readout, and a column voltage displacement prevention circuit which prevents displacement of a supplied voltage level for each of the non-selected column selection lines at the time of readout.
