Abstract:
A storage device includes a nonvolatile memory device and a controller. A nonvolatile memory device includes a plurality of memory blocks. Each of the plurality of memory blocks is divided into a plurality of zones and is formed on a substrate. Each of the plurality of zones comprises one or more word lines. A controller performs a reliability verification read operation on a first zone of the plurality of zones of a memory block selected from the plurality of memory blocks if a number of read operations performed on the first zone reaches a first threshold value and performs the reliability verification read operation on a second zone of the plurality of zones of the selected memory block if a number of read operations performed on the second zone reaches a second threshold value.
Abstract:
A comparing circuit may include a first amplifier and a second amplifier. The first amplifier performs a correlated double sampling operation in response to a pixel signal and a ramp signal, and the second amplifier amplifies an output signal of the first amplifier. The second amplifier includes a current stabilization circuit that supplies current to the second amplifier during the correlated double sampling operation irrespective of the output signal of the first amplifier.
Abstract:
An apparatus for bonding semiconductor chips may comprise transfer rails configured to transfer substrates, loading members configured to load the substrates onto the transfer rails, unloading members configured to unload the substrates from the transfer rails, a first wafer supply unit configured to supply a first wafer including semiconductor chips, and/or a bonding unit configured to bond the semiconductor chips to the substrates. An apparatus for bonding semiconductor chips may comprise a transfer rail configured to transfer substrates, loading members configured to load the substrates onto the transfer rail, unloading members configured to unload the substrates from the transfer rail, a buffer member at a side of the transfer rail configured to temporarily receive the substrates loaded by the loading members, a first wafer supply unit configured to supply a first wafer including semiconductor chips, and/or a bonding unit configured to bond the semiconductor chips to the substrates.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a data storage device including a controller and a multi-stack chip package, and a method of operating a data storage device. The multi-stack chip package includes a first semiconductor chip arranged on a package substrate, a second semiconductor chip arranged on the first semiconductor chip, and a third semiconductor chip is arranged between the first and second semiconductor chips. The controller can control the first to third semiconductor chips by using a feature parameter measured from each semiconductor chip and a target value that may be originally designed by a memory vendor.
Abstract:
A random data reading method of a nonvolatile memory device includes receiving an initial seed corresponding to a selected page of the nonvolatile memory device and relative location information of read-requested random data in the selected page. The method further includes generating a seed for randomizing the random data by subjecting the initial seed and the location information to a finite field arithmetic operation, and de-randomizing the random data based on a random sequence generated from the seed.
