    Abstract: A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array, a link error correction code (ECC) engine and on-die ECC engine. The memory cell array includes a plurality of volatile memory cells. The link ECC engine provides a main data by performing a first ECC decoding on a first coedword including the main data and a first parity data, and generates a first error flag based on a result of the first ECC decoding. The on-die ECC engine generates a second parity data by performing a first ECC encoding on the main data, provides a target page of the memory cell array with a second codeword including the main data and the second parity data in response to the first error flag being deactivated or generates a third codeword by changing at least one of bits of the second codeword in response to the first error flag being deactivated.

    Abstract: A memory system includes a system controller and a memory device. The system controller includes a memory controller configured to transmit a received address to a decoding module, and output, to the host device, decoded data. The decoding module includes a cache device and a decoder. The decoding module is configured to receive the data corresponding to the address from the memory device. The decoding module is configured transmit the data stored in the cache device to the memory controller in response to determining that the data corresponding to the address is stored in the cache device. The decoding module is configured to decode the data corresponding to the address to generate decoded data and store the decoded result in the cache device in response to determining that the data corresponding to the address is not stored in the cache device.

    Abstract: A memory device may include counters respectively corresponding to rows and each configured to count a number of accesses to a corresponding row, a refresh control circuit, a queue, and first flags respectively corresponding to the rows. The refresh control circuit may change a second flag set in a refresh period every refresh period, and determine whether to put an incoming row address into the queue based on a count value of a counter corresponding to a target row indicated by the incoming row address among the counters, a first flag value of a first flag corresponding to the target row among the first flags, and a second flag value of the second flag set in a current refresh period.

    Abstract: A method for reading data from a memory includes; reading a codeword from the memory cells, correcting the errors when a number of errors in the codeword is less than a maximum number of correctable errors, correcting the errors when the number of errors in the codeword is equal to the maximum number of correctable errors and the errors correspond to a same sub-word line, and outputting signal indicating that the errors are an uncorrectable error when the number of errors of the codeword is equal to the maximum number of correctable errors and the errors correspond to different sub-word lines.

    Abstract: An error correction circuit of a semiconductor memory device includes an error correction code (ECC) encoder and an ECC decoder. The ECC encoder generates, based on a main data, a parity data using an ECC represented by a generation matrix and stores a codeword including the main data and the parity data in a target page of a memory cell array. The ECC decoder reads the codeword from the target page as a read codeword based on an address provided from outside the semiconductor memory device to generate different syndromes based on the read codeword and a parity check matrix which is based on the ECC, and applies the different syndromes to the main data in the read codeword to correct a single bit error when the single bit error exists in the main data or to correct two bit errors when the two bit errors occur in adjacent two memory cells in the target page.
