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.
