Abstract
A non-volatile semiconductor memory includes a memory cell array having a plurality of electrically-rewritable non-volatile memory cells. The memory cell array is provided with an initially-setting data area, programmed in which is initially-setting data for deciding memory operation requirements. The non-volatile semiconductor memory also includes an initial-set data latch. The initially-setting data of the memory cell array is read out and transferred to the data latch in an initially-setting operation.
