Abstract
A nonvolatile memory device includes a control circuit that generates an integrated activation signal based on a read command signal for instructing start of an read operation and a ready/busy signal, and simultaneously generates a voltage control signal and a path control signal in response to the integrated activation signal, a voltage providing circuit that generates voltages used to perform the read operation in response to the voltage control signal, and path control circuits that control electrical path connection to a memory cell array in which the read operation is performed in response to the path control signal.
