Abstract
A nonvolatile memory device includes a multi-level cell which stores M-bit data at a time and M number of latches for respectively storing M-bit data on a single bit basis. A controller sequentially latches M-bit data of the multi-level cell into the M number of latches, respectively, during a first half read period, and sequentially outputs the latched M-bit data in the M number of latches during a second half read period.
