Abstract:
A method of operating a storage device may include receiving a read command and a read address, performing a read operation on selected memory cells corresponding to a selected string selection line and a selected word line based on the read address and performing a reliability verification read on unselected memory cells. Data read by the read operation may be output to an external device, and data read by the reliability verification read may be not output to the external device.
Abstract:
A nonvolatile memory device comprises a cell array connected to a plurality of bit lines in an all bit line structure, a page buffer circuit connected to the plurality of bit lines, and control logic configured to control the page buffer circuit. The control logic controls the page buffer circuit to sense memory cells corresponding to both even-numbered and odd-numbered columns of a selected page in a first read mode and to sense memory cells corresponding to one of the even-numbered and odd-numbered columns of the selected page in a second read mode. A sensing operation is performed at least twice in the first read mode and once in the second read mode.
Abstract:
A soft-decision read method of a nonvolatile memory device includes receiving a soft-decision read command, applying a read voltage to a selected word line, pre-charging bit lines respectively connected to selected memory cells of the selected word line, continuously sensing states of the selected memory cells. The pre-charged voltages of the bit lines and the read voltage supplied to the selected word line are not varied during the sensing states of the selected memory cells.
Abstract:
An operating method is provided which includes receiving a read command and a read address, performing a read operation about memory cells selected according to the read address, and performing a reliability verification read operation about unselected memory cells adjacent to the selected memory cells. A number of memory cells each corresponding to at least one state of an erase state and program states of the unselected memory cells is counted as a count value based on the result of the reliability verification read operation. Data read through the read operation is output to an external device and data read through the reliability verification read operation is not output to the external device.

Abstract:
A memory device includes a memory cell array including a first switch cell, a second switch cell, and a plurality of memory cells disposed between the first the second switch cells and connected to a plurality of word lines, and a control circuit configured to perform a program operation by providing a program voltage to a first word line among the plurality of word lines, a switch voltage to a second word line among the plurality of word lines, and a pass voltage to remaining word lines among the plurality of word lines, wherein the control circuit is configured to turn off the first switch cell and the second switch cell in a first section of the program operation, and configured to turn on the first switch cell and increase the switch voltage in a second section of the program operation later than the first section.
Abstract:
A nonvolatile memory system includes a nonvolatile memory device and a memory controller that controls the nonvolatile memory device. The nonvolatile memory device includes multiple memory blocks. Each of the memory blocks includes memory cells. Each of the memory cells has any one of an erase state and one of multiple different program states. An operation method of the nonvolatile memory system includes receiving a physical erase command from an external device. The operation method also includes performing a fast erase operation, responsive to the received physical erase command, with respect to at least one memory block so that first memory cells of the at least one memory block have a fast erase state different from the erase state.
