摘要:
A resistive memory system having a plurality of memory cells includes a memory device having a resistive memory cell array and a controller. The controller generates write data to be written to the memory cell array by encoding input data such that the input data corresponds to an erase state and a plurality of programming states that a memory cell may have. The input data is encoded such that at least one of the number of memory cells assigned a first programming state and the number of memory cells assigned a second programming state is smaller than at least one of the numbers of memory cells in the erase state and the other programming states. The first programming state has a highest resistance level among the plurality of programming states, and the second programming state has a second highest resistance level among the plurality of programming states.

An erase method of a nonvolatile memory device includes setting an erase mode, and performing one of a normal erase operation and a quick erase operation according to the set erase mode. The normal erase operation is performed to set a threshold voltage of a memory cell to an erase state which is lower than a first erase verification level. The quick erase operation is performed to set a threshold voltage of a memory cell to a pseudo erase state which is lower than a second erase verification level. The second erase verification level is higher than the first erase verification level.

A method is for operating a resistive memory system including a resistive memory device implemented as multi-level memory cells. The method includes setting levels of reference voltages used to determine resistance states of the multi-level memory cells, and reading data of the multi-level memory cells based on the reference voltages. A difference between the reference voltages used to determine a relatively high resistance state is greater than a difference between the reference voltages used to determine a relatively low resistance state.
