Disclosed herein is a semiconductor memory device which prevents the voltage of a select bit line from being reduced due to the action of coupling capacitance between the select bit line and a non-select bit line and reduces current consumption in the non-select bit line. The semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array, a plurality of word lines, a plurality of bit lines, a data line, a plurality of selector circuits, at least one precharge circuit, and at least one pull-down circuit. The selector circuits switch electrical connections and isolations between the respective bit lines and the data line. The precharge circuit precharges the select bit line to a predetermined voltage level which is different from a voltage level of a first voltage line. The pull-down circuit pulls the select bit line down to the voltage level of the first voltage line.
