ABSTRACT:
A nonvolatile register includes at least one memory cell. The memory cell has one word gate and first and second nonvolatile memory elements controlled by first and second control gates, respectively. Data is stored in one of the first and second nonvolatile memory elements, and the other of the first and second nonvolatile memory elements does not function as an element which stores data.
