A nonvolatile memory device includes a pair of PMOS transistors, and a control circuit configured to operate in a store mode to apply to a first one of the PMOS transistors potentials that cause an NBTI degradation purposefully and to apply to a second one of the PMOS transistors potentials that cause no NBTI degradation while causing no current to flow between a source node and a drain node of the first one of the PMOS transistors, and to operate in a recall mode to set gate nodes of the PMOS transistors to a common potential to detect a difference in the NBTI degradation between said PMOS transistors.
