Abstract
Various embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a non-volatile memory device including a sense amplifier and an operation method thereof. The non-volatile memory device may include: a memory cell array comprising a plurality of memory cells; and the sense amplifier configured to read data of the plurality of memory cells and output the read data. The sense amplifier may include: a first stage sense amplifier configured to sense a voltage difference between a reference voltage and a voltage of a bit line connected to at least one memory cell among the plurality of memory cells, and perform a primary amplification of the sensed voltage difference; and a second stage sense amplifier configured to perform a secondary amplification of a first result of the primary amplification and output a second result of the secondary amplification.
