    Abstract: A memory cell comprises a first semiconductor layer, and a first conductive layer. The first semiconductor layer extends in a perpendicular direction with respect to a semiconductor substrate. The first conductive layer sandwiches a charge storage layer with the first semiconductor layer. A control circuit executes a first program operation and then executes a second program operation. The first program operation supplies a first voltage to the body of the memory cell and supplies a second voltage larger than the first voltage to the gate of the memory cell. The second program operation renders the body of the memory cell in a floating state and supplies a third voltage which is positive to the gate of the memory cell.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a power-on detection system for a memory device.SOLUTION: A master latch circuit 310 and a slave latch circuit 312 of a dual function data register 310 can save words of two different pieces of data simultaneously. In a program verification operation, the master latch saves program data and the slave latch receives and saves read data. Comparison logic of each resister state compares data of both the latches with each other and integrates a comparison result with a comparison result of a precedent register stage. A result of final one bit indicates presence of at least one bit which is not programmed. At a logical level of a low or high active state of a clock signal, a shit operation is selectively started so as to output any of data words successively according to the clock.
