A nonvolatile memory according to an embodiment includes at least one memory cell including: a variable resistance memory comprising one end connected to a first terminal, and the other end connected to a second terminal, a drive voltage being applied to the first terminal; and a diode comprising a cathode connected to the second terminal, and an anode connected to a third terminal, a ground potential being applied to the third terminal. An output of the memory cell is output from the second terminal, the output of the memory cell depends on a resistance state of the variable resistance memory.
