Abstract

A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device is provided including a DINOR (Divided Bit Line NOR) type cell that allows further reduction of the cell size while ensuring immunity from drain-disturb. In the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device, a sub-bit line is formed to have a length corresponding to the length of 16-1024 memory cell transistors. Memory cell transistors corresponding to the length of that sub-bit line are connected to the sub-bit line. Thus, the effective cell size is reduced while ensuring immunity from drain-disturb.
