    Abstract: A non-volatile memory device includes an upper semiconductor layer including a first metal pad and vertically stacked on a lower semiconductor layer. The upper semiconductor layer includes a first memory group spaced apart from a second memory group in a first horizontal direction by a separation region, and the lower semiconductor layer includes a second metal and a bypass circuit underlying at least a portion of the separation region and configured to selectively connect a first bit line of the first memory group with a second bit line of the second memory group. The upper semiconductor layer is vertically connected to the lower semiconductor layer by the first metal pad and the second metal pad.

    Abstract: In a method of reading initialization information from a non-volatile memory device, when power-up is detected, the non-volatile memory device divides a source voltage to generate a low read pass voltage which is to be provided to unselected word lines in an initialization information read operation. The low read pass voltage is set as at least one voltage between a ground voltage and the source voltage. The non-volatile memory device allows the source voltage not to be pumped in the initialization information read operation, based on the power-up. In the initialization information read operation, the non-volatile memory device provides the low read pass voltage to the unselected word lines and provides a read voltage to a selected word line to read initialization information stored in the memory cells.
