Abstract: A memory device includes: a memory cell array including a plurality of memory cells; and a page buffer circuit provided in a page buffer region including a main region and a cache region provided in a first horizontal direction, and including a first page buffer unit and a second page buffer unit adjacent to each other in a second horizontal direction in the main region. A first sensing node of the first page buffer unit includes a first lower metal pattern, and a first upper metal pattern, and electrically connected to the first lower metal pattern. A second sensing node of the second page buffer unit includes a second lower metal pattern, and a second upper metal pattern, electrically connected to the second lower metal pattern, and not adjacent to the first upper metal pattern in the second horizontal direction.

Abstract: A memory device may include word line patterns stacked on a substrate and spaced from each other in a vertical direction, a channel structure extending in the vertical direction, and first contact plugs and second contact plugs extending in the vertical direction. The substrate may include a cell area, a cell wiring area, and a through-hole wiring area. The word line patterns may be on the cell area and the cell wiring area and may extend to the cell wiring area in a direction parallel to an upper surface of the substrate. The first contact plugs may be on the cell wiring area and each may be electrically connected with a corresponding one of the word line patterns and insulated from remaining word line patterns other than the corresponding one of the word line patterns. The second contact plugs may be on the through-hole wiring area.

Abstract: A vertical memory device includes a plurality of word lines on a substrate, a plurality of word line cut regions extending parallel to each other, a memory cell array comprising a plurality of channel structures extending on the substrate through the plurality of word lines and arranged in a honeycomb structure, a plurality of contacts on the plurality of channel structures, and a plurality of bit lines connected to the plurality of channel structures through the plurality of contacts. The memory cell array comprises a first sub-array and a second sub-array, which are defined by the plurality of word line cut regions and are connected to some identical bit lines from among the plurality of bit lines, and a layout of contacts in the first sub-array from among the plurality of contacts is different from a layout of contacts in the second sub-array from among the plurality of contacts.
