ABSTRACT:
A method for discharging an erase voltage of a semiconductor memory device and discharge circuit for performing the method, the method including performing a first discharge on a common source line (CSL) of the semiconductor memory device, comparing the detected CSL voltage with a predetermined reference voltage, and performing a second discharge on the CSL when the detected CSL voltage is lower than a predetermined reference voltage.
