Abstract:
A relative magnitude relation of a threshold voltage of a main cell and a threshold voltage of a monitor cell is not considered in the prior art documents. Therefore, there still is room for improvement in correctly reading out data of the main cell. Provided is a memory device with a main memory and a monitor memory having a plurality of memory cells respectively. The memory device reads out the plurality of memory cells of the main memory at a third threshold voltage if a result of reading out the plurality of memory cells of the monitor memory at a second threshold voltage does not satisfy a predetermined first criterion. Here, the third threshold voltage is lower than a first threshold voltage, the second threshold voltage is higher than the first threshold voltage, and the first threshold voltage is a read-out threshold voltage of the main memory in normal operation.

Claim (Index 8):
The memory device according to  claim 6 , wherein the fourth threshold voltage is higher than or equal to the first threshold voltage.
