Original Abstract Submitted

a semiconductor memory device includes plural planes each including plural blocks each including a memory cell, a voltage generator which supplies power to the plural planes, an input/output circuit which receives a command set sent from a memory controller to the semiconductor memory device, and a sequencer which executes an operation in response to the command set. upon receiving a first command set instructing execution of a first operation, the sequencer executes the first operation. upon receiving a command set instructing operation of a second operation during execution of the first operation, the sequencer executes the first and second operations in parallel. upon receiving a third command set instructing execution of a third operation during execution of the first operation, the sequencer suspends the first operation, executes the third operation, and resumes the first operation upon completion of the third operation.
