摘要:
A control circuit performs a write operation to 1-page memory cells along the selected word line, by applying a write pulse voltage to a selected word line, and then performs a verify read operation of confirming whether the data write is completed. When the data write is not completed, a step-up operation is performed of raising the write pulse voltage by a certain step-up voltage. A bit scan circuit determines whether the number of memory cells determined to reach a certain threshold voltage is equal to or more than a certain number among the memory cells read at the same time, according to read data held in the sense amplifier circuit as a result of the verify read operation. The control circuit changes the amount of the step-up voltage according to the determination of the bit scan circuit.
