Non-volatile semiconductor device and non-volatile semiconductor memory device for storing multi-value information

摘要

A non-volatile semiconductor device stores multi-value information of at least two bits in one memory cell. A source region and a drain region serve as diffusion regions. A first channel region and a second channel region are placed between the source region and the drain region. A first gate electrode is arranged over the first channel region and the drain region. A second gate electrode is arranged over the second channel region and the source region. The first channel region stores a first threshold value while the second channel region stores a second threshold value different from the first threshold value.
