Abstract:
A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device includes a control circuit configured to control a soft program operation of setting nonvolatile memory cells to a first threshold voltage distribution state of the nonvolatile memory cells. When a characteristic of the nonvolatile memory cells is in a first state, the control circuit executes the soft program operation by applying a first voltage for setting the nonvolatile memory cells to the first threshold voltage distribution state to first word lines, and applying a second voltage higher than the first voltage to a second word line. When the characteristic of the nonvolatile memory cells is in a second state, the control circuit executes the soft program operation by applying a third voltage equal to or lower than the first voltage to the first word lines and applying a fourth voltage lower than the second voltage to the second word line.

Claim (Index 14):
The nonvolatile semiconductor memory device according to  claim 13 ,\n wherein the certain pre-program voltage is applied to word lines connected to the control gate electrodes of the memory cells for data storage, and the voltage different from the certain pre-program voltage is applied to dummy word lines connected to the control gate electrodes of the first memory cell and the second memory cell.
