Abstract
A nonvolatile memory device includes a nonvolatile memory cell coupled to a bit line. The nonvolatile memory device may include a sensing circuit configured to output a sensing output signal for sensing a status of the nonvolatile memory cell based on a sensing input signal inputted to the sensing circuit through a sensing input line. The nonvolatile memory device may include a folding circuit coupled to the bit line to output the sensing input signal having a voltage low level or a voltage high level according to a voltage level of the bit line.
