Abstract: A control circuit of a semiconductor memory device performs a write operation on a memory cell transistor of the semiconductor memory device by performing a first pulse application operation of lowering a threshold voltage of the memory cell transistor, a precharge operation, and then a second pulse application operation. In the precharge operation, in a state in which first and second select transistors connected to the memory cell transistor are turned on, a bit line connected to the memory cell transistor is charged by applying a ground voltage to a word line connected to a gate of the memory cell transistor and applying a voltage higher than the ground voltage to a source line. In the second pulse application operation, in a state in which the first select transistor is turned on and the second select transistor is turned off, a program voltage is applied to the word line.

Abstract: A semiconductor storage device includes a memory cell array including a plurality of memory strings, each connected between one of a plurality of bit lines and a source line and includes a first select transistor, a second select transistor, and memory cell transistors that are connected in series between the first select transistor and the second select transistor, and a plurality of word lines respectively connected to gates of the memory cell transistors in each memory string. A threshold voltage of the memory cell transistor is increased when a voltage that is applied to the word line connected to the gate thereof is lower than a voltage of a channel thereof. In the erase operation, data stored in the memory cell transistors connected to a selected one of the word lines are erased while data stored in the memory cell transistors not connected to the selected word line are not erased.
