Abstract
A memory device according to one embodiment includes a plurality of memory cells, a word line, and a controller. Each of the memory cells is configured to store multiple-bit data according to which of a plurality of states having different threshold voltages each of the memory cells is included in. The word line is connected to the memory cells. The controller is configured to count a number of memory cells having threshold voltages on a higher state side among the states, and to execute a read operation for the memory cells as a target, by using a read voltage that is shifted based on a result of the counting.
