Abstract:
A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device according to one embodiment of the present invention includes: a memory cell array and a control circuit. The control circuit executes a first reading operation and a second reading operation. The first reading operation is an operation of reading a threshold voltage set in the selected memory cell by setting a voltage between a control gate electrode and source of the selected memory cell to a first value. The second reading operation is an operation of reading a threshold voltage set in the selected memory cell by setting a voltage between the control gate electrode and source of the selected memory cell to a second value lower than the first value. When executing the second reading operation, the control circuit keeps a voltage of the control gate electrode of the selected memory cell to 0 or a positive value.

Claim (Index 15):
15  The method of performing a reading operation in a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device according to  claim 13 , wherein\n the performing the first reading operation and the performing the second reading operation respectively include applying the control gate electrode of the second memory cell with the first reading pass voltage in the first reading operation and applying the control gate electrode of the second memory cell with the second reading pass voltage having a value smaller than that of the first reading pass voltage in the second reading operation in any of cases of the first determination, the second determination, and the third determination.
