==SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240296893 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORY DEVICE

The semiconductor memory device described in the patent application consists of a memory block, multiple bit lines, select gate lines, word lines, and a controller. The memory block contains memory strings, each comprising a selection transistor and multiple memory cells. The bit lines are aligned in one direction and connected to the memory strings, while the select gate lines are arranged in another direction and linked to the selection transistors. The word lines are positioned in a third direction and connected to the memory cells. The controller is responsible for executing an erase operation within a memory block and conducting a series of erase verify operations.
