Abstract

The non-volatile semiconductor memory device comprises memory cell array having a plurality of memory cells, word lines connected to control gates of the memory cells, bit lines connected to drains of the memory cells, a source line connected in common to sources of the memory cells and connected to a well region where the memory cells are formed, a row decoder consisting of a row main decoder and a row sub-decoder for selecting a word line in the memory cell array, a column gate circuits for selecting a bit line in the memory cell array, a control gate driver for biasing a word line in the memory cell array, and an well driver for biasing semiconductor region in which the memory cell array is formed.
