    Abstract: According to an embodiment, a semiconductor memory device includes a first pin, a first receiving circuit, and a first terminating circuit. The first pin receives a first signal and a second signal having a smaller amplitude than the first signal. The first receiving circuit is connected to the first pin and outputs, based on a comparison between the first signal and a first voltage, a third signal. The first receiving circuit also outputs, based on a comparison between the second signal and a second voltage, a fourth signal having a smaller amplitude than the third signal. The first terminating circuit is connected to the first pin. The first terminating circuit is disabled if the first pin receives the first signal, and enabled if the first pin receives the second signal.

    Abstract: A semiconductor memory device according to an embodiment includes a plurality of planes including a plurality of blocks each being a set of memory cells, and a sequencer configured to execute a first operation and a second operation shorter than the first operation. Upon receiving a first command set that instructs execution of the first operation, the sequencer is configured to execute the first operation. Upon receiving a second command set that instructs execution of the second operation while the first operation is being executed, the sequencer is configured to suspend the first operation and execute the second operation or execute the second operation in parallel with the first operation, based on an address of a block that is a target of the first operation and an address of a block that is a target of the second operation.

    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a memory system includes n memory cells, each capable of storing j bits of data; and a controller. The controller is configured to write a first portion of each of first data to n-th data from among n×j data with consecutive logical addresses to the n memory cells one by one. The first data has a lowest logical address among the n×j pieces of data. The first data to the n-th data have ascending consecutive logical addresses. The controller is configured to write the first portion of one of the first to n-th data as a first bit of the j bits, and write the first portion of another one of the first to n-th data except said one of the first to n-th data as a second bit of the j bits.

    Abstract: A semiconductor storage device includes a memory string, a sense amplifier including first and second latch circuits, a cache memory including a third latch circuit, and a control circuit. The control circuit is configured to perform a first read operation in response to a first command set and consecutively perform a second read operation in response to a second command set received during the first read operation. During the first read operation, data read from the memory string is stored in the first latch circuit. When the second command set is received at a first timing, the control circuit transfers the data to the second latch circuit, and then to the third latch circuit. When the second command set is received at a second timing before the first timing, the control circuit directly transfers the data to the third latch circuit.
