    Abstract: A non-volatile memory device includes a memory cell array including memory cells, a read circuit that, in operation, obtains pieces of resistance value information each relating to the resistance value of one of the memory cells, an arithmetic circuit that, in operation, calculates a binary reference value based on at least a part of the pieces of resistance value information, and a data adjustment circuit. In operation, the read circuit assigns, based on the binary reference value, 0 or 1 to each of the pieces of resistance value information. In operation, the data adjustment circuit determines whether to adjust the binary reference value, in accordance with a difference between the numbers of pieces of digital data “0” and digital data “1” in the pieces of digital data.

    Abstract: A data recording method includes recording data in memory cells on the basis of whether each memory cell is in an initial state or a variable state. The recording step includes (A) applying a forming stress to a selected memory cell in the initial state, and (B) setting a resistance value of the selected memory cell to within a first resistance range by (b1) applying a first correction signal to the selected memory cell if the resistance value of the selected memory cell is greater than a first reference value, and (b2) applying a second correction signal to the selected memory cell if the resistance value of the selected memory cell is smaller than a second reference value.
