Abstract

See full text

A semiconductor memory device improving a high-temperature data retention is provided. Here, a flash memory includes an erasing element erasing a selected storage cell in a storage cell array. The erasing element further includes an applying element, a verifying element, and a decision element. The applying element applies a monitoring erasing pulse to a monitoring storage cell before starting an erasing operation for selecting the storage cell. The verifying element performs a verification of the monitoring storage cell to which the monitoring erasing pulse is applied. The decision element detennines ISPE conditions based on a verification result of the verifying element. The erasing element erases the storage cell according to the determined ISPE conditions.
