Abstract: A test circuit includes a built-in self-test (BIST) circuit and a built-in repair analysis (BIRA) circuit. The built-in self-test (BIST) circuit performs a test operation for a plurality of memory packages to generate fail information. The built-in repair analysis (BIRA) circuit receives the fail information from the BIST circuit to select at least one of the plurality of memory packages as a repair target memory package. The repair target memory package is selected by considering an error correction capability of an error correction code (ECC) circuit and usability of redundancy regions included in each of the plurality of memory packages.

Abstract: A memory system includes a memory device and a memory controller. The memory controller includes a core processor and a built-in self-repair (BISR) logic circuit. The core processor includes a register file with a plurality of register values corresponding to a plurality of repair commands. The BISR logic circuit receives at least one of the plurality of register values from the core processor and converts the at least one of the plurality of register values into at least one of the repair commands to output the least one of the repair commands to the memory device. The core processor transmits the at least one of the plurality of register values to the BISR logic circuit in response to a firmware instruction that is output from an external firmware coupled to the memory controller.

Abstract: A semiconductor system may include a memory device and a controller. The memory device may include a plurality of decks. Each of the decks may include word lines and bit lines alternately stacked. The controller may control an operation for data of the decks included in the memory device. The controller may include a counting circuit block for counting access numbers of the word lines and the bit lines. The counting circuit block may include a plurality of x-counting blocks corresponding to the word lines that are stacked a plurality of y-counting blocks corresponding to the bit lines that are stacked. The x-counting blocks may count access numbers of selected word lines in accordance with a selection signal of a corresponding deck among the decks. The y-counting block may count access numbers of selected bit lines in accordance with the selection signal of the corresponding deck.

Abstract: A memory system includes a memory medium and a memory controller. The memory medium has a second address system that is different from a first address system of a host. The memory controller performs a control operation to access the memory medium based on a command from the host. The memory controller is configured to store a second address, corresponding to an address of a read data, when an error of the read data that is outputted from the memory medium is uncorrectable and is configured to repair a region of the memory medium, designated by the second address, when the region of the memory medium that is designated by the second address is repairable.

Abstract: A semiconductor system may be provided. The semiconductor system may include a fail information generator and a data mapping circuit. The fail information generator may detect a data fail address of a data storage region. The data mapping circuit may change a mapping table based on the data fail address, and transmit data to be stored at the data fail address in the data storage region, to a parity storage region.
