Abstract

A data read operation method of a memory device includes applying a read voltage having a first preparation level and a first target level to a word line of a selected cell in the memory device to read a program state of the selected cell, applying a first read pass voltage having a second preparation level and a second target level to at least one word line of first non-selected cells not adjacent to the selected cell and in the same string as the selected cell, and applying a second read pass voltage having a third target level to a word line of at least one second non-selected cell adjacent to the selected cell.
