ABSTRACT:
An electrically erasable and programmable read only memory includes a memory cell array having a plurality of memory cells coupled to bit lines and word lines. Each of the memory cells includes a select transistor controlled by one of the word lines, a memory transistor of the enhancement type coupled to one of the bit lines through the select transistor and having a control gate, and a drive transistor having a gate coupled to the one of the word lines and applying a control gate voltage supplied through a program line to the control gate of the memory transistor. Further, the electrically erasable and programmable read only memory includes a select device for selecting at least one of the bit lines and one of the word lines on the basis of an address supplied from an external device, and a sense amplifier for outputting data stored in the memory cell array. Also provided is a discharging device which discharges the drain regions and the control gates of the memory transistors after a predetermined time has passed from a transition of the address and application of the control gate voltage.
