Abstract: A memory device may determine cell count information from a threshold voltage distribution of memory cells and may determine a detection case based on the cell count information when an error in read data, received from the memory device performing a read operation is not corrected. A memory controller may control the memory device to execute a read operation using a development time determined in consideration of an offset voltage of a read voltage corresponding to the detection case. When an error in the read data is successfully corrected, the memory controller may update a table, stored in the memory controller, using a dynamic offset voltage obtained by inputting the cell count information to a machine learning model.

Abstract: In a method of reducing reliability degradation of a nonvolatile memory device, the nonvolatile memory device in which initial data having an initial threshold voltage distribution is stored in a plurality of memory cells connected to a plurality of wordlines is provided. Before a first process causing reliability degradation is performed, a first write operation is performed such that first data having a first threshold voltage distribution is stored into memory cells connected to first wordlines. The first wordlines have a degree of reliability degradation less than a reference value. Before the first process is performed, a second write operation is performed such that second data having a second threshold voltage distribution is stored into memory cells connected to second wordlines. The second wordlines have a degree of reliability degradation greater than or equal to the reference value.

Abstract: A nonvolatile memory device includes cell strings commonly connected between bitlines and a source line where the cell strings are grouped into memory blocks. During a precharge period, channels of the cell strings of a selected memory block are precharged by applying a gate induced drain leakage (GIDL) on voltage to gates of GIDL transistors included in the cell strings of the selected memory block where the GIDL on voltage has a voltage level to induce GIDL. During the precharge period, precharge of channels of the cell strings of an unselected memory block are prevented by controlling a gate voltage of GIDL transistors included in the cell strings of the unselected memory block to prevent the GIDL. During a program execution period after the precharge period, memory cells of the selected memory block connected to a selected wordline are programmed by applying a program voltage to the selected wordline.
