According to one embodiment, a resistance change memory includes the following configuration. A first inverter includes first input and first output terminals and first and second voltage terminals. A second inverter includes second input and second output terminals and third and fourth voltage terminals. The second input terminal is connected to the first output terminal. The second output terminal is connected to the first input terminal. First and second transistors are connected to the first and second output terminals, respectively. Third and fourth transistors are connected to the first and third voltage terminals, respectively. A fifth transistor is connected between the first voltage terminal and the first memory cell. A sixth transistor is connected to the third voltage terminal. A controller turns on the first and second transistors, after turning off the fifth and sixth transistors.
