    Abstract: Disclosed are a semiconductor memory device, a controller, and a memory system. The semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array including a plurality of memory cells, and an error correcting code (ECC) decoder configured to receive first data and a parity output from selected memory cells of the memory cell array. The ECC decoder generates a syndrome based on the first data and the parity, generates a decoding status flag (DSF) indicating a type of an error of the first data by the syndrome, and outputs the second data and the DSF to an external device outside of the semiconductor memory device when a read operation of the semiconductor memory device is performed.

    Abstract: A memory device includes a memory cell array including memory cells arranged in a plurality of rows; an ECC engine configured to detect an error in first data that is read from the memory cell array in response to a read command and a read address, to output a first error occurrence signal, and to correct the error in the first data; a row fail detector configured to output a fail row address, which indicates a fail row among the plurality of rows; and a flag generator configured to receive the read address, the first error occurrence signal, and the fail row address, and to generate a decoding state flag, which indicates whether an error is detected and whether an error is corrected, and a fail row flag, which indicates that a read row address included in the read address is the fail row address.
