Abstract:
A nonvolatile memory device is operated by receiving a dual plane read command for simultaneously reading first and second planes, each comprising memory cells, receiving an MSB read address for reading data stored in the memory cells, checking whether an MSB program operation has been performed on each of the first and second planes, and performing the read operation on the first and second planes according to a result of the check and outputting the read data.
Abstract:
A nonvolatile memory device is operated by, inter alia, performing a program operation on memory cells belonging to a page selected from among a plurality of pages, performing a verification operation on the programmed memory cells, loading a start loop value of a fail bit count set to the selected page, from among start loop values of fail bit counts set to the respective pages, and if a loop value of the program operation is greater than or equal to the start loop value, counting a number of fail bits included in data of the programmed memory cells detected in the verification operation.
Abstract:
A method of operating a non-volatile memory device reduces a time for discharging a precharged voltage when a program operation or a read operation is performed, thereby decreasing a total operation time of the non-volatile memory device. The non-volatile memory device discharges a bit line and a word line using only a control signal without reading an algorithm block when a precharged voltage is discharged. The method of operating a non-volatile memory device includes detecting an operation command; generating algorithm blocks for generating an operation voltage, for precharging a bit line and a word line, and for performing a specific operation in accordance with the operation command; outputting a discharge enable control signal for the bit line and the word line; and reading an algorithm of turning off and discharging a voltage generating means for generating the operation voltage.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor memory device and a method of operation the semiconductor memory device, which sets an encoding value by sequentially defining ranges used for recognizing distribution of memory cells based on a middle range and then performing a read operation in an order from the middle ranges to an outermost range, thereby capable of using infinite ranges for recognizing the distribution of the memory cells without addition of a circuit to an inside of the semiconductor memory device.
