Abstract:
A storage device that improves ability of adjusting a resistance value level in recording and enables stable verification control is provided. VWL supplied from a second power source to a control terminal of a transistor is increased (increase portion: ΔVWL) for every rerecording by verification control by a WL adjustment circuit. In the case where a variable resistive element is able to record multiple values, ΔVWL is a value variable for every resistance value level of multiple value information. That is, ΔVWL is a value variable according to magnitude relation of a variation range of recording resistance of the variable resistive element due to a current. In the region where the variation range of the recording resistance is large (source-gate voltage VGS of the transistor is small), ΔVWL is small, while in the region where the variation range of the recording resistance is small (VGS is large), ΔVWL is large.
