Abstract
A semiconductor storage device with a smaller chip size than prior art and a readout method are provided. The semiconductor storage device includes a memory cell array; a page buffer/sense circuit having a sensing node for sensing readout data from a selected page of the memory cell array and a latch circuit for holding data sensed by the sensing node; and a controller controls operations on the memory cell array. The sensing node includes an NMOS capacitor.
