A non-volatile semiconductor memory device capable of performing page programming at high speeds is provided. This nonvolatile memory device includes a cell array with a matrix of rows and columns of electrically writable and erasable nonvolatile memory cells, and a write control circuit which writes or “programs” one-page data into this cell array at a plurality of addresses within one page. The write control circuit is operable to iteratively perform iteration of a write operation for the plurality of addresses corresponding to one page and iteration of a verify-read operation of the plurality of addresses after writing until verify-read check is passed with respect to every address involved. Regarding an address or addresses with no cells to be written any more, the write control circuit skips the write operation and the after-write verify-read operation.

The present invention provides a method for writing data to a non-volatile memory device having first wirings and second wirings intersecting one another and memory cells arranged at each intersection therebetween, each of the memory cells having a variable resistive element and a rectifying element connected in series. According to the method, the second wirings are charged to a certain voltage not less than a rectifying-element threshold value, prior to a rise in a selected first wiring. Then, a selected first wiring is charged to a voltage required for writing or erasing, after which a selected second wiring is discharged.

A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device has an internal step-down power generation circuit and a memory circuit. The internal step-down power generation circuit generates a first internal power supply voltage from an external power supply voltage in an active state, and generates a second internal power supply voltage different from the first internal power supply voltage from the external power supply voltage in a standby state. The memory circuit includes a cell array containing a nonvolatile memory cell and a sense amplifier detecting data read from the cell array. The sense amplifier is supplied with a voltage generated by the internal step-down power generation circuit as an internal power supply voltage.
