  • Patent number: 11544002
    Abstract: A memory system, a memory controller and an operating method are disclosed. When a target command which instructs an operation of writing target data to a memory device is received from a host, the target data is divided into data units, and a first data unit among the data units is controlled such that the entire first data unit is written to the memory device or none of the first data unit is written to the memory device. As a consequence, it is possible to write data in specific units in a memory system using a multi-core.

  • Patent number: 11061608
    Abstract: A memory system includes a memory controller. The memory controller includes: a buffer memory configured to store read count values of memory blocks and address mapping information of the memory blocks; and a central processing unit configured to monitor the read count values, and determine whether a refresh operation of target blocks, among the memory blocks, is to be performed on all memory blocks including target blocks in a super block, in a unit of the super block or on the target memory blocks in the super block in a unit of a single block, based on the monitoring result.
