NONVOLATILE MEMORY DEVICES, MEMORY SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF PERFORMING READ OPERATIONS

摘要

Within a non-volatile memory device, a read operation directed to a nonvolatile memory cell having a positive threshold voltage applies a positive read voltage to a selected word line and a first control signal to a page buffer connected to a selected bit line, but if the memory cell has a negative threshold voltage the read operation applies a negative read voltage to the selected word line and a second control signal to the page buffer different from the first control signal.
