Abstract
Disclosed is an electrically erasable and programmable non-volatile storage device, which has: an erase operation control means for outputting a first signal to write or erase data to or from a memory cell when receiving a write or erase operation signal; a write or erase pulse width control means which decides a write or erase pulse width according to the first signal and outputs a pulse; a write or erase pulse generating means which generates a write or erase pulse to be applied to the memory cell according to the pulse output from the write or erase pulse width control means; a verifying means which decides whether or not the memory cell to which the write or erase pulse is applied reaches a threshold voltage and which outputs the decision as a second signal to the write or erase operation control means; and a write or erase pulse width setting means which outputs a third signal to change the write or erase pulse width on the basis of the first signal and the second signal to the write or erase pulse width control means.
