Abstract

A flash memory device includes: first pads; second pads; third pads; a memory cell region including first metal pads and a memory cell array; and a peripheral circuit region including a second metal pads and vertically connected to the memory cell region by the first metal pads and the second metal pads directly. The peripheral circuit region includes a row decoder block; a buffer block storing a command and an address received from an external semiconductor chip through the first pads; a page buffer block connected to the memory cell array through bit lines, connected to the third pads through data lines, and exchanging data signals with the external semiconductor chip through the data lines and the third pads; and a control logic block receiving control signals from the external semiconductor chip through the second pads, and controlling the row decoder block and the page buffer block.
