    Abstract: A memory system includes a memory controller, a memory cell array, a location information storage unit, an address mapping table, an address conversion unit, and a mapping information calculation unit. The memory controller generates a logical address signal and an address re-mapping command. The memory cell array includes a plurality of logic blocks. The location information storage unit stores location information corresponding to faulty memory cells included in the memory cell array. The address mapping table stores address mapping information. The address conversion unit converts the logical address signal to a physical address signal corresponding to the memory cell array based on the address mapping information. The mapping information calculation unit generates the address mapping information to reduce the number of logic blocks including the faulty memory cells based on the location information upon the mapping information calculation unit receiving the address re-mapping command.

    Abstract: An electronic device includes a memory controller; a first memory device coupled to the memory controller; a second memory device coupled to the memory controller, the second memory device being a different type of memory from the first memory device; and a conversion circuit between the memory controller and the second memory device. The memory controller is configured to send a first command and first data to the first memory device according to a first timing scheme to access the first memory device, and send a second command and a packet to the conversion circuit according to the first timing scheme to access the second memory device. The conversion circuit is configured to receive the second command and the packet, and access the second memory device based on the second command and the packet.
