    Abstract: A memory system includes a memory cell array including a first memory area and a second memory area, an input/output circuit including input/output lines for transmitting or receiving data bits and parity bits to or from the first and second memory areas, and an error correction circuit including a plurality of sub error correction circuits including a first sub error correction circuit for performing a first error correction operation on first data bits of the first memory area received through the input/output lines, and a second sub error correction circuit for performing a second error correction operation on second data bits of the second memory area received through the input/output lines. The first memory area has a higher bit error rate than the second memory area.
