Abstract:
A word-line controller applies a voltage to a selected word-line. A bit-line controller applies voltages to bit-lines. A detector detects data of memory-cells. A write sequence of writing data in selected memory-cells connected to the selected word-line has at least one write-loop including a write operation of applying a plurality of write voltages with the word-line controller and the bit-line controller, and a verify operation of verifying with the detection circuit whether a threshold voltage of each of the selected memory-cells has reached a plurality of reference voltages for corresponding write data. The word-line controller and the bit-line controller select a write voltage corresponding to a threshold voltage of each of the selected memory-cells from among the write voltages with respect to each of the write-loops, and apply the selected write voltage to the selected memory-cell in a subsequent write operation.

Claim (Index 8):
The device of  claim 5 , wherein\n the bit line controller applies a first bit line voltage, a second bit line voltage higher than the first bit line voltage, or a third bit line voltage higher than the second bit line voltage to the bit lines in the write operation, the bit line controller applies the first bit line voltage to ones of the bit lines corresponding to the selected memory cells in a subsequent write operation when threshold voltages of the selected memory cells are lower than the first reference voltage in the verify operation, the bit line controller applies the second bit line voltage to ones of the bit lines corresponding to the selected memory cells in a subsequent write operation when threshold voltages of the selected memory cells are higher than the first reference voltage in the verify operation, and the bit line controller applies the third bit line voltage to ones of the bit lines corresponding to the selected memory cells in a subsequent write operation when threshold voltages of the selected memory cells respectively have reached target threshold voltages to be written therein in the verify operation.
