  • Patent number: 11948643
    Abstract: A nonvolatile memory device includes a memory cell array and a control unit. The memory cell array includes a plurality of memory regions coupled to a plurality of word lines. The plurality of memory regions include first and second memory regions coupled to upper and lower word lines, respectively. The control logic performs, after receiving first data and second data, a first program operation on the first memory region to store the first data and a second program operation on the second memory region to store the second data.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11467910
    Abstract: A memory system includes a memory device; and a controller configured to transmit a target address to the memory device for performing an access operation, receive from the memory device a reference address at which the access operation has been performed, and selectively re-perform the access operation based on the reference address. The controller re-performs the access operation when the reference address is different from the target address.
