ABSTRACT:
A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device capable of being changed in method of use according to its application and in addition having a high reliability and an IC memory card using the same. An IC memory card is provided with multi-level type flash memory chips and a controller as principal constituent elements and constituted so as to allow free selection of plurality of operation modes according to the application, that is, use where a storage capacity is large, but there is a reduction in the write/erase speed or the guaranteed number of the repeated rewrites or use where the storage capacity is small, but there is no reduction in the write/erase speed or the guaranteed number of the repeated rewrites.
