Abstract

A non-volatile memory device includes a plurality of word lines stacked above a substrate in a vertical direction; erase control lines that are spaced apart from each other in a first direction and extend in a second direction; a pass transistor circuit including a first pass transistor connected to a first group of erase control lines and a second pass transistor connected to a second group of erase control lines; and a memory cell array including a plurality of blocks. The first group of erase control lines are relatively close to a word line cut region and the second group of erase control lines are relatively far from the word line cut region. Each of the plurality of blocks includes a plurality of channel structures connected to the word lines and the erase control lines and each channel structure extends in the vertical direction.
