Abstract

See full text

A method of writing data into a memory cell of a non-volatile semiconductor memory device includes setting a write voltage applied to portions of the memory cells depending upon a value of write data, and applying, to a gate electrode, a voltage by which an electric charge is allowed to tunnel through an insulating film on a lower side of a dialectric film that captures the electric charge corresponding to a data value. The amount of electric charge captured is easily and reliably adjusted in order to store desired multi-value digital data, while preventing occurrence of data corruption.
