Abstract
A memory system includes a nonvolatile memory and a controller that performs first, second, and third processes on memory cells of the nonvolatile memory. The first process is performed on first memory cells to store a first value therein, such that a highest threshold voltage among the threshold voltages of the first memory cells is set as a first threshold voltage. The second process is performed on second memory cells to store a second value therein, such that a lowest threshold voltage among the threshold voltages of the second memory cells is set as a second threshold voltage higher than the first threshold voltage. The third process performed on third memory cells such that a lowest threshold voltage in the third memory cells is lower than the first threshold voltage, and a highest threshold voltage in the third memory cells is higher than the second threshold voltage.
