摘要： An error correction device includes a low density parity check (LDPC) decoder and an adaptive decoding controller. The LDPC decoder iteratively performs LDPC decoding on data by using a decoding parameter. The adaptive decoding controller calculates an error rate depending on a result of the LDPC decoding and adjusts the decoding parameter depending on the error rate.

摘要： A memory device includes an ECC circuit that performs error correction code (ECC) encoding on input data to generate write data, and a memory cell array including a plurality of memory cells that stores the write data. The ECC circuit includes a data splitter that splits the input data into first sub-data and second sub-data, a first ECC encoder that performs ECC encoding on the first sub-data to generate first sub-parity data, a second ECC encoder that performs ECC encoding on the second sub-data to generate second sub-parity data, and a data scrambler that performs a data scrambling operation with respect to the first sub-data, the second sub-data, the first sub-parity data, and the second sub-parity data based on a structure of the memory cell array to generate the write data.

摘要： A memory device may include counters respectively corresponding to rows and each configured to count a number of accesses to a corresponding row, a refresh control circuit, a queue, and first flags respectively corresponding to the rows. The refresh control circuit may change a second flag set in a refresh period every refresh period, and determine whether to put an incoming row address into the queue based on a count value of a counter corresponding to a target row indicated by the incoming row address among the counters, a first flag value of a first flag corresponding to the target row among the first flags, and a second flag value of the second flag set in a current refresh period.

摘要： A method for reading data from a memory includes; reading a codeword from the memory cells, correcting the errors when a number of errors in the codeword is less than a maximum number of correctable errors, correcting the errors when the number of errors in the codeword is equal to the maximum number of correctable errors and the errors correspond to a same sub-word line, and outputting signal indicating that the errors are an uncorrectable error when the number of errors of the codeword is equal to the maximum number of correctable errors and the errors correspond to different sub-word lines.

摘要： An error correction circuit of a semiconductor memory device includes an error correction code (ECC) encoder and an ECC decoder. The ECC encoder generates, based on a main data, a parity data using an ECC represented by a generation matrix and stores a codeword including the main data and the parity data in a target page of a memory cell array. The ECC decoder reads the codeword from the target page as a read codeword based on an address provided from outside the semiconductor memory device to generate different syndromes based on the read codeword and a parity check matrix which is based on the ECC, and applies the different syndromes to the main data in the read codeword to correct a single bit error when the single bit error exists in the main data or to correct two bit errors when the two bit errors occur in adjacent two memory cells in the target page.
