ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor memory device is disclosed, which includes a plurality of NAND cells each comprising a plurality of series-connected memory cell transistors, and a drain-side select transistor and a source-side select transistor connected to a drain-side end and a source-side end of the series-connected memory cell transistors, respectively, a source line commonly connected to the source-side select transistors in the plurality of NAND cells, a first discharge circuit which is connected between the source line and a reference potential and whose conduction
on-conduction is controlled by a first control signal, and a second discharge circuit which is connected between the source line and the reference potential and whose conduction/ non-conduction is controlled by a second control signal different from the first control signal.
