Abstract

A non-volatile memory device includes a first select transistor, a second select transistor, and a first string of first memory cells provided between the first and second select transistors. Each first memory cell has a first resistive memory cell and a first transistor. The first resistive memory cell is in series with a gate of the first transistor. The non-volatile memory device further includes a first bit line coupled to a drain of the first select transistor and a plurality of word lines. Each word line is coupled to one of the first memory cells.
