Abstract

A semiconductor storage device includes a memory cell connected to a word line, and a control circuit configured to execute a write operation that repeats a program loop including a program operation of applying a program voltage to the word line and a verification operation to be executed after the program operation. The control circuit, during the write operation, increases the program voltage by a first amount each time the program loop is repeated, and after the write operation is interrupted and resumed, changes the increase in the program voltage from the first amount to a second amount, which is a positive number smaller than the first amount.
