According to one embodiment, a system includes a memory, a controller which controls an operation of the memory in a data program, and data bus which connects the memory to the controller. The memory comprises a memory cell array with memory cells which have a bit assignment to 2x (x is an integer number of 3 or more) threshold distributions, each memory cell storing x bits, and a control circuit which controls the data program of x bits to the memory cells. The controller comprises a first step generating y bit (y is an integer number and y

Memory cells store k bits of data (k is a natural number not less than 2) into a single cell. A number n of data storage circuits store externally supplied k bits of data to write data into the memory cells. A control circuit inputs the data on a first page, a second page, . . . , a k-th page to every h (h≦n) of the data storage circuits and then writes the data in the n data storage circuits into the memory cells.

A memory cell array is configured to have a plurality of memory cells arranged in a matrix, each of the memory cells being connected to a word line and a bit line and being capable of storing n values (n is a natural number equal to or larger than 3). A control circuit controls the potentials of the word line and bit line according to input data and writes data into a memory cell. The control circuit writes data into the memory cell to a k-valued threshold voltage (k

In a memory cell array, a plurality of memory cells connected to a plurality of word lines and a plurality of bit lines are arranged in a matrix. A control circuit controls the potentials of said plurality of word lines and said plurality of bit lines. In an erase operation, the control circuit erases an n number of memory cells (n is a natural number equal to or larger than 2) of said plurality of memory cells at the same time using a first erase voltage, carries out a verify operation using a first verify level, finds the number of cells k (k≦n) exceeding the first verify level, determines a second erase voltage according to the number k, and carries out an erase operation again using the second erase voltage.
摘要:
Data storage circuits are connected to the bit lines in a one-to-one correspondence. A write circuit writes the data on a first page into a plurality of 5 first memory cells selected simultaneously by a word line. Thereafter, the write circuit writes the data on a second page into the plurality of first memory cell. Then, the write circuit writes the data on the first and second pages into second memory cells adjoining 10 the first memory cells in the bit line direction.
摘要:
A memory cell array has a first and a second storage area. The first storage area has a memory elements selected by an address signal. The second storage area has a memory elements selected by a control signal. A control circuit has a fuse element. When the fuse element has been blown, the control circuit inhibits at least one of writing and erasing from being done on the second storage area.
摘要:
A memory cell array is connected to a word line and a bit line, and configured so that a plurality of memory cells storing one level of n levels (n is a natural number more than 4) in one memory cell are arrayed in a matrix. A control circuit controls a potential of the word line and the bit line in accordance with input data, and writs data in the memory cell. The control circuit applies a write voltage corresponding to write data to a memory cell. The write voltage differs for each write data. A verify operation is executed for each write data after a write voltage application operation ends with respect to all n levels.
摘要:
A memory cell array has a number of memory cells which are connected to word lines and bit lines and are arranged in a matrix form, each of the memory cells storing one of n levels (n is a natural number of 2 or more). A control circuit controls the potentials on the word lines and the bit lines in accordance with input data to write data to the memory cells. The control circuit is adapted to, at the write time, first apply a first potential to a well region or substrate in which the memory cells are formed, then set the well region or substrate to a second potential lower than the first potential, and next apply a predetermined voltage to the word lines to thereby perform a write operation.
