ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor memory device comprising: a memory cell array having memory cell units each formed by connecting a plurality of memory cells; a first and a second select gate transistors, the first select gate transistor being connected between one end of the memory cell array and a common source line, the second select gate transistor being connected between the other end of the memory cell array and bit lines; word lines acting also as control gates of the memory cells; a first select gate voltage-generating circuit for generating a first select gate voltage; a second select gate-setting circuit for setting an instructed value of a second select gate voltage; a second select gate voltage-generating circuit for generating the second select gate voltage based on the set, instructed value; a first transfer circuit for transferring the first select gate voltage generated by the first select gate voltage-generating circuit to a second select gate; a discharging circuit for discharging the first select gate voltage transferred to the second select gate; and a discharging characteristics selection circuit for selecting discharging characteristics of the discharging circuit.
