Patent number: 11003382Abstract: A memory system is provided and includes memory chips and a memory controller. Each of the memory chips one or more first state output pins arranged therein. The memory controller has arranged therein a first state input pin connected in a wired-AND configuration to the one or more first state output pins arranged in the memory chips. The memory controller is configured to transmit a chip enable signal and/or an initially set function command to the memory chips. Each of the memory chips outputs a first state signal having one level from among three logic levels according to a first internal operation state of the memory chip to the one or more first state output pins of the memory chip based on the chip enable signal and/or the initially set function command.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2019Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Seong-hoon Woo, Hak-sun Kim, Kwang-Jin Lee, Su-chang Jeon
