Abstract

According to one embodiment, a non-volatile memory device includes a memory cell array and a coil provided closely to the memory cell array. The memory cell array includes memory cells provided above an underlying layer, and a first interconnection. The memory cells are aligned in a first direction perpendicular to the underlying layer. The first interconnection extends in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The coil includes a winding including a second interconnection extending in the second direction and sharing a central axis with the first interconnection, a first plug extending in the first direction and connected to the second interconnection, a third interconnection electrically connected to another end of the first plug and extending in a direction parallel to the underlying layer, and a second plug having one end electrically connected to the third interconnection, and extending in a direction opposite to the first direction.
