Abstract:
Disclosed is an operating method of a memory device communicating with a memory controller, which includes receiving a first command from the memory controller, the first command indicating initiation of synchronization of a data clock signal and defining a clock section corresponding to the synchronization, preparing a toggling of the data clock signal during a preparation time period, processing a first data stream based on the data clock signal toggling at a reference frequency, and processing a second data stream based on the data clock toggling at the reference frequency and extended for a period of the defined first clock section.

Abstract:
A semiconductor memory device includes a cell array that includes a first row block and a second row block, a bit line sense amplifier block that senses data stored in the first row block or the second row block, a local sense amplifier that latches the sensed data transferred from the bit line sense amplifier block, and a switch that connects the local sense amplifier with a selected one of a first global data line and a second global data line in response to a select signal. The second row block may be placed at an edge of the cell array, and the switch connects the local sense amplifier with the first global data line when the first row block is activated and connects the local sense amplifier with the second global data line when the second row block is activated.
Abstract:
A nonvolatile memory system includes a nonvolatile memory device including a plurality of memory cells, and a memory controller. The memory controller is configured to count a clock to generate a current time, program dummy data at predetermined memory cells among the plurality of memory cells at a power-off state, detect a charge loss of the predetermined memory cells when a power-on state occurs after the power-off state, and restore the current time based on the detected charge loss.
Abstract:
A method is for driving a memory controller which is configured to control a nonvolatile memory device. The method includes counting a number of error bits of read data provided from the nonvolatile memory device, determining a running average value using the number of error bits; and performing a wear leveling on the nonvolatile memory device using the running average value as a wear leveling index.
Abstract:
A program method for a nonvolatile memory system including a reprogram operation that does not require a reload of first program data to page buffers of a constituent nonvolatile memory device between execution of a first coarse program step and execution of a first fine program step being performed after the execution of an intervening second coarse program step.
