Abstract: A memory system may include a plurality of first memory devices; and a memory controller that may include a first chip enable (CE) pin configured to output a first CE signal that enables selectively any one of the first memory devices and a first status input pin configured to receive a first output signal indicating a memory operation status of an enabled first memory device from among the first memory devices in a first memory operation status checking period. In the first memory operation status checking period, the first output signal has one of a first level to indicate a first status of the memory operation status of the enabled first memory device, a second level to indicate a second status of the memory operation status of the enabled first memory device, or a third level to indicate a disabled status of the first memory devices.

Abstract: A storage device includes a first memory device, a second memory device, and a controller. The first memory device and the second memory device share the same channel to communicate with the controller. Communication between the first memory device and the controller and communication between the second memory device and the controller are mutually exclusive. When the controller receives a read request directed to the second memory device while the controller processes a direct memory access (DMA) operation directed to the first memory device, the controller suspends the DMA operation and transmits a read command associated with the read request to the second memory device.

Abstract: A storage device includes a controller and a nonvolatile memory device. The controller includes a field programmable gate array (FPGA) and receives an FPGA image for updating the FPGA from an outside in response to a first command received from the outside. The nonvolatile memory device stores the FPGA image. The controller receives the FPGA image through a main interface or a sideband interface, and executes the FPGA image in response to a second command received from the outside.

Abstract: A storage device includes nonvolatile memory devices arranged in groups, and a controller connected with the groups respectively through channels. The controller is configured to generate an access request for a nonvolatile memory device among the nonvolatile memory devices, and transmit, based on the access request, access requests respectively to two or more groups, among the groups, respectively through two or more channels, among the channels.
