Abstract
A semiconductor storage device includes first and second planes each including a plurality of memory cells, an input/output circuit configured to receive data to be written in the memory cells from a controller, and a control circuit. The first plane includes a first sense amplifier circuit electrically connected to a first memory cell of the first plane and a first latch circuit connected in series between the input/output circuit and the first sense amplifier circuit. The control circuit is configured to carry out a first write operation on the first memory cell using the first latch circuit in response to a first command, and while carrying out the first write operation on the first memory cell, accept a second command to carry out a second write operation on a second memory cell of the second plane before use of the first latch circuit during the first write operation has ended.
