    摘要: A collective erasure type nonvolatile semiconductor memory device which allows use of redundant structure to word lines is provided. A row address buffer having address converting function simultaneously selects a plurality of physically adjacent word lines from a memory array in programming before erasure. Programming before erasure is effected on the memory cells on the simultaneously selected word lines. Even when physically adjacent word lines are short-circuited between each other, programming high voltage can be transmitted to the defective word lines, as these word lines are selected simultaneously. Therefore, the memory cells on the defective word lines can be programmed before erasure, so that over erasure at the time of collective erasing operation can be prevented. Thus, redundant structure for replacing defecting word lines by spare word lines can be utilized.

    摘要: A plurality of memory cell transistors having floating gates are disposed in a matrix in the direction of row and column to form a memory cell array. The memory cell array is divided into a plurality of sectors for every predetermined row. In each sector, sector selecting transistors and sub bit lines are provided, so that erasing and programming can be made for each sector. Therefore, total erasing for sector becomes possible, and since no voltage is applied to sub bit lines and word lines of non-selected sectors, the number of operations of preventing writing into non-selected memory cells is as many as the word lines included in one sector.

    摘要: Externally inputted data of one word line is temporarily stored in a latch circuit. In the writing cycle, the data stored and held in the latch circuit is collectively written in memory transistors connected to the selected word line. On this occasion, 0 V is applied to one of the control gate and the drain of the memory transistor in which "0" is written and a high voltage V.sub.PP is applied to the other of the control gate and the drain. Therefore, not only in the erasing cycle but also in the writing cycle, the operation is carried out by the movement of charges caused by the electron tunneling.

    摘要: A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device comprises a random access memory (RAM) and an electrically programmable and erasable read only memory (EEPROM). Since a capacitance (106) is formed between a control gate (103) and a drain (102) of a memory transistor, and a source of the memory transistor is rendered to be floating in the RAM write and read operation and in the EEPROM write operation and is supplied with a finite potential in EEPROM read operation, the operation of nonvolatile memory is achieved. A sense amplifier (15, 16) is amplified the potential difference between a bit line (BL) and a control gate line (CGL) is both memory operation and latches the input data in both write operation, such that the potential of the BL and the CGL are determined low or high potential. Besides in the EEPROM write operation, after latching the input data in the sense amplifier, a nonvolatile program is started such that a BL or a CGL is pumped up to program voltage (15-20 V). In the EEPROM read operation, a BL and a CGL are pre-changed in a different potential (BL CGL). After that, the sense amplifier is activated and the EEPROM data is read out.
