See full text

A method of writing or reading at least three different data in each memory cell, in a non-volatile semiconductor memory device having a plurality of memory cells, each memory cell having floating gate for setting a given threshold voltage in the memory cell. In addition, a non-volatile semiconductor memory device capable of checking if the data stored in the selected memory cell is correct by using one of at least two binary bits of the data as a parity bit, and a method of writing or reading data in or from that memory device.
