Abstract
A memory device includes a memory cell array, and a page buffer circuit connected to the memory cell array through a plurality of bit lines, including a plurality of page buffers arranged in correspondence with the bit lines and each of which includes a sensing node. The plurality of page buffers include a first page buffer, and the first page buffer includes: a first sensing node configured to sense data by corresponding to a first metal wire at a lower metal layer; and a second metal wire electrically connected to the first metal wire and at an upper metal layer located above the lower metal layer, and a boost node corresponding to a third metal wire adjacent to the second metal wire of the upper metal layer and configured to control a boost-up and a boost-down of a voltage of the first sensing node.
