Abstract:
According to example embodiments, a method of operating a storage device includes reading a process capability index using a memory controller, adjusting at least one operation condition based on the process capability index, and operating one of at least one nonvolatile memory device according to the at least one operation condition adjusted. The process capability index indicates how a structure associated with a memory cell to be operated deviates from a target shape.
Abstract:
A data programming method of a semiconductor memory device is provided which includes randomizing write data using a randomization method selected from among a plurality of randomization methods according to whether the write data is programmed in one of a plurality of nonvolatile memories; and programming the randomized write data in at least one of the plurality of nonvolatile memories, wherein the plurality of nonvolatile memories has different types from one another.
Abstract:
An operating method is for a memory system which includes a NAND flash memory, a resistance variable memory, and a controller controlling the NAND flash memory and the resistance variable memory. The operating method includes receiving data, programming the received data in the NAND flash memory when the received data is at least a super page of data, programming the received data in the resistance variable memory when the received data is not a super page of data, and programming data accumulated in the resistance variable memory in the NAND flash memory when the accumulated data is a super page of data. A super page of data is an entirety of data that is programmable in memory cells connected to a same word line of the NAND flash memory.
Abstract:
A nonvolatile memory device includes a memory cell array, a page buffer unit which output a verify-read result, a reference current generating unit which generates a reference current signal, a page buffer decoding unit which outputs currents according to the verify-read result. The nonvolatile memory device further includes an analog bit counting unit which counts the currents, a digital adding unit which calculates an accumulated sum of the counting result, a pass/fail checking unit which outputs a pass signal or fail signal according to the calculation result, and a control unit controlling a program operation.
