    摘要: A memory cell array is configured so that a plurality of memory cells storing one value of an n value (n is a natural number more than 2) are arranged in a matrix. A control circuit controls the voltage of a word line and a bit line in accordance with input data. The control circuit supplies a first voltage to a word line of a selected cell in a write operation, and supplies a second voltage to at least one word line adjacent to the selected cell. Thereafter, the control circuit changes a voltage of the at least one word line adjacent to the selected cell from the second voltage to a third voltage (second voltage

    摘要: A memory cell stores several data using n (n: natural number more than 1) threshold voltages. A voltage supply circuit supplies a predetermined voltage to a gate of the memory cell in a verify operation of verifying whether or not the memory cell reaches a predetermined threshold voltage. A detection circuit connected to one terminal of the memory cell charges one terminal of the memory cell to a predetermined potential. The detection circuit detects the voltage of one terminal of the memory cell based on a first detection timing, and further, detects the voltage of one terminal of the memory cell based on a second detection timing.

    摘要: A plurality of memory cells each storing n values (n is a natural number which is not smaller than 3) are arranged in a matrix form in a memory cell array, and each memory cell is connected with a word line and a bit line. Each memory cell stores the n-valued data by a first write operation and a second write operation. A read section sets a potential of a word line, and reads data from a memory cell in the memory cell array. If data read by the read section and written in the second write operation includes an uncorrectable error, a control section changes a potential of a word line supplied to the read section when reading data written in the first write operation.

    摘要: A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device of the present invention is characterized in that, when data is written to a flag cell area, every other flag cell in the direction of one bit line BL among a plurality of flag cells 15 connected to the bit line BL is written with data and every other flag cell in the direction of one word line WL among a plurality of flag cells 15 connected to the word line WL is written with data. The arrangement as described above prevents a flag cell 15 from being influenced by the capacitive coupling of a neighboring flag cell 15 adjacent to the flag cell 15 in the direction of the word line WL. Thus, data (flag data) memorized by the flag cell 15 can have improved reliability.
