Abstract
A semiconductor storage device includes: a first memory cell and a second memory cell that are adjacent to each other and connected to each other in series; a first word line connected to the first memory cell; a second word line connected to the second memory cell; and a control circuit. The control circuit is configured to, in a first read operation to read a first bit stored in the first memory cell, apply a first voltage to the first word line, and then, apply a first read voltage lower than the first voltage, to the first word line, and apply a second voltage to the second word line, and then, apply a third voltage lower than the second voltage and higher than the first voltage, to the second word line. The third voltage is applied to the second word line after the first read voltage is applied to the first word line.
