Abstract

Provided is a programming method of a nonvolatile memory device which includes a plurality of strings each including a source select transistor, a plurality of memory cells, and a drain select transistor which are connected in series between a common source line and a bit line. The programming method includes: applying a first voltage to the common source line during a first period in which a channel of a plurality of memory cells of an unselected string is floated; and applying a second voltage increased more than the first in voltage to the common source line during a second period in which a selected memory cell is programmed, when a selected word line belongs to a word line group adjacent to the common source line.
