Abstract
A semiconductor memory device comprises: a first pad receiving a first signal; a second pad receiving a second signal; a first memory cell array; a first sense amplifier connected to the first memory cell array; a first data register connected to the first sense amplifier and configured to store user data read from the first memory cell array; and a control circuit configured to execute an operation targeting the first memory cell array. The first memory cell array comprises a plurality of first memory strings. The first memory strings each comprise a plurality of first memory cell transistors. In a first mode of this semiconductor memory device, a command set instructing the operation is inputted via the first pad. In a second mode of this semiconductor memory device, the command set is inputted via the second pad.
