Semiconductor memory device and data erasing method |
摘要 |
A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array including a plurality of groups of memory cells above a substrate, the groups including a first group and a second group, each of the first and second groups including a first memory string and a second memory string, the first memory string including first memory cells that are disposed in a first layer, the second memory string including second memory cell that are disposed in a second layer above the first layer, and a controller configured to perform an erasing operation on the memory cells, the erasing operation including a verifying operation on the memory cells to determine on a layer by layer basis whether the memory cells failed to erase data stored therein. |

1. A semiconductor memory device comprising:
a memory cell array including a plurality of groups of memory cells above a substrate, the groups including a first group and a second group, each of the first and second groups including a first memory string and a second memory string, the first memory string including first memory cells that are disposed in a first layer, the second memory string including second memory cells that are disposed in a second layer above the first layer; and a controller configured to perform an erasing operation on the memory cells, the erasing operation including a verifying operation on the memory cells to determine on a layer by layer basis whether the memory cells failed to erase data stored therein. |
