In a nonvolatile semiconductor memory having a two-stage sense read circuit using a level shift circuit and a single-end sense amplifier, relationships of sizes of a main memory cell bit line charge transistor, a main memory cell bit line transfer gate transistor, a main memory cell bit line load transistor, a dummy cell bit line charge transistor, a dummy cell bit line transfer gate transistor, and a dummy cell bit line load transistor are set to simultaneously satisfy conditions for equalizing a bit line and a dummy cell bit line and conditions for equalizing a sense line and a dummy cell sense line. Therefore, the potentials of the bit line and the dummy cell bit line and the potentials of the sense line and the dummy cell sense line can be simultaneously equalized, and a high-speed read operation can be achieved.

A memory cell array has a plurality of memory cells formed of EEPROM cells arranged in a matrix form. Data in the memory cells is flash-erased, and after this, word lines other than a selected word line are set to a negative potential and erasing verification for detecting an insufficiently erased memory cell is effected. The flash-erasing and erasing verification are repeatedly effected until no insufficiently erased memory cell is detected. When no insufficiently erased memory cell is detected, word lines other than a selected word line are set to a negative potential and an overerased memory cell is detected. When an overerased memory cell is detected, weak program is effected for the cell by applying a voltage lower than the normal writing voltage to the cell.

A semiconductor integrated circuit device includes fuse cells arranged at a fuse cell array, a fuse cell data program and erase circuit, a fuse cell data control circuit, and fuse data latch circuits. The fuse cells include erasable and programmable nonvolatile memory cells. The fuse cell data program and erase circuit programs fuse data to the memory cells and erases the fuse data from the memory cells. The fuse cell data control circuit controls read out timing of the fuse data stored in the memory cells based on a signal generated upon detection of power-on. The fuse data latch circuits latch the fuse data read out from the memory cells.

A NOR type flash memory includes a plurality of word lines, a plurality of bit lines, at least one bit line, a plurality of nonvolatile memory cells, a row decoder, a cell selection circuit and a programming load. Each of the plurality of nonvolatile memory cells includes a gate electrode, drain electrode and source electrode and the gate electrode is connected to a corresponding one of the plurality of word lines, the drain electrode is connected to a corresponding one of the plurality of bit lines and the source electrode is connected to the source line. The row decoder selects one of the plurality of word lines at the time of data programming. The cell selection circuit includes a column decoder and column gates and is constructed to simultaneously select one bit line from each of the plurality of groups among the plurality of bit lines. The programming load increases the number of programming bits with the progress of programming when data of plural bits is programmed into a plurality of memory cells simultaneously selected by the cell selection circuit.

摘要:
Each of first and second cell array groups has a cell array and a row decoder. Circuit blocks including a reset transistor, a Y selector, a write transistor, a block decoder, and a source decoder except the cell array and row decoder are arranged in the area between the first and second cell array groups. Since an address signal, a control signal, and a power supply common to the circuit blocks can be shared, the layout area can be reduced.
