ABSTRACT:
A NOR flash memory device is capable of shortening a program time. Included is a cell array segmented into a plurality of banks, a data input buffer to receive and store data composed of units of words, the number of units corresponding to the number of banks, and a program driver to apply a program voltage contemporaneously to the banks. According to the present invention, a plurality of program data composed of word units is programmed at the same time, so that the time for programming the whole memory cell array can be shortened.
