Description
昇圧電位発生回路18は、電圧検知回路17から与えられた情報と電源電圧Vcc2を基にして、NAND型フラッシュメモリの動作に必要な電圧を発生する。
基板電位制御回路19は、昇圧電位発生回路18で発生された電圧を用いて、メモリセルアレイ10が形成された半導体基板の電圧を制御する。
ワード線電位制御回路20は、昇圧電位発生回路18で発生された電圧を用いて、ワード線に与えるべき電圧を制御する。
アドレスバッファ21は、半導体チップ3−0外部から与えられるアドレス信号を保持する。そしてアドレス信号をロウデコーダ11及びカラムデコーダ12へ出力する。
ロウデコーダ11は、アドレスバッファ21から与えられるアドレス信号によって指定されたワード線を選択し、ワード線電位制御回路20から与えられる電圧を選択ワード線に印加する。
