Abstract

A semiconductor nonvolatile memory device including first and second bit lines, a buffer memory connected to the first and second bit lines, an electrically erasable programmable nonvolatile memory connected to the first and second bit lines, a writing latch circuit to which the first and second bit lines are connected in parallel and having a differential sensor type sense amplifier, and a switching circuit for switching the nonvolatile memory and the latch circuit to a nonconnected state at the time of operation of the buffer memory and switching the buffer memory and the latch circuit to a nonconnected state at the time of a writing or erasure operation on the nonvolatile memory.
