A semiconductor memory device capable of preventing a defect caused by lowering the etching precision in an end area of the memory cell array is provided. A first block is constructed by first memory cell units each having of memory cells, a second block is constructed by second memory cell units each having a plurality of memory cells, and the memory cell array is constructed by arranging the first blocks on both end portions thereof and arranging the second blocks on other portions thereof. The structure of the first memory cell unit on the end side of the memory cell array is different from that of the second memory cell unit. Wirings for connecting the selection gate lines of the memory cell array to corresponding transistors in a row decoder are formed of wiring layers formed above wirings for connecting control gate lines of the memory cell array to the transistors in the row decoder.

摘要:
A method for constructing and addressing a nanoscale memory with known addresses and for tolerating defects which may arise during manufacture or device operational lifetime. During construction, nanoscale wires with addresses are stochastically assembled. During a programming phase, nanoscale wires are stochastically selected using their stochastic addresses through microscale inputs and a desired address code is associated with the selected nanoscale wires. Memory addresses are associated to the codes and then selected using the known codes during read/write operations from/to the memory.

A multi-level semiconductor memory device preferably includes a plurality of wordlines connected to memory cells configured to store multi-level data. A first circuit supplies a temperature-responsive voltage to a selected wordline in order to read a state of a selected memory cell. A second circuit supplies a predetermined voltage to non-selected wordlines. The first circuit preferably includes a semiconductor element that varies its resistance in accordance with temperature. Reliable program-verifying and reading functions are preferably provided despite migration of threshold voltage distribution profiles due to temperature variations.
