Abstract
In a memory cell array, a plurality of memory cells which store data in the form of n values (n is a natural number which is not smaller than 2) which are in first and second to nth states are arranged in a matrix form. Before a write operation of storing data in a first memory cell in the memory cell array, when at least one second memory cell which is adjacent to the first memory cell is in the first state and does not reach a first threshold voltage, a control circuit performs a write operation in the second memory cell up to the first threshold voltage.
