Abstract

A non-volatile semiconductor memory device, comprises a plurality of memory banks each including a plurality of memory cells, a command recognition section for identifying an externally input command signal and outputting an identification signal, an internal control section for generating a control signal for executing a command designated by the identification signal, an address control section for generating an internal address signal to a memory region including an arbitrary combination of the plurality of memory banks to be accessed, based on the externally input address signal, and a first address inversion section for inverting or non-inverting the logical values of at least a specific bit of the input address signal and outputting the resultant input address signal to the address control section. Predetermined memory cells are accessed based on the control signal and the internal address signal.
