A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device includes a plurality of banks including respective memory cell arrays independent of each other, a password storage area that is associated with one of the banks, a bank decoder which generates a bank selection signal by decoding a bank address, a first bank selection circuit which outputs a write instruction or a read instruction to the one of the banks, a plurality of second bank selection circuits which outputs a write instruction or a read instruction to the respective banks except for the one of the banks, and a command-decode-&-bank-control circuit which controls the first and second bank selection circuits such that receipt of a first command causes one of the first and second bank selection circuits selected by the bank selection signal to output a write instruction or a read instruction, and such that receipt of a second command causes the first bank selection circuit to output a write instruction independently of the bank selection signal, and causes one of the second bank selection circuits selected by the bank selection signal to output a read instruction.
