Abstract:
PURPOSE: A sequence replacement method and a device thereof are provided to improve the reliability of a memory device by replacing a specific sequence which is not required with a different sequence. CONSTITUTION: A sequence replacing unit(160) comprises a storage part and a sequence substitution circuit. The storage part stores an m number of sequences which are predefined. The sequence substitution circuit receives a first sequence outputted from a host. When the first sequence is the same as one among the m number of sequences, the sequence substitution circuit outputs a substitution sequence to a memory device instead of the first sequence. The substitution sequence includes pattern bits which represent the pattern of the first sequence and location bits which represent the start location of the first sequence.

PURPOSE: A memory system and a bad block management method thereof are provided to improve the efficiency of a memory block. CONSTITUTION: A first step is processed to determine that a memory block satisfies a bad block condition(S110). When the memory block satisfies the bad block condition, a subsequent treatment operates in the memory block(S120). The memory block is allocated to the bad block(S130). When the bad block satisfies a bad block release condition, the bad block is released. The subsequent treatment programs a cell in the erase state into a program state cell or stores the timing to assign the memory block as the bad block.

Abstract:
An apparatus for detecting memory data based on a soft decision value are provided to minimize an error of data stored in a memory cell by allotting a soft decision value according to error information. In an apparatus for detecting memory data based on a soft decision value, a reference voltage determination unit(110) determines a soft decision value based on channel information of a memory cell. A voltage comparative part(120) determines a period which includes a threshold voltage by comparing the threshold voltage of the memory cell with a plurality of soft-decision reference voltages. A data detection part detects data stored in memory cell by a period where a threshold voltage is included. A pilot data storage module(140) stores pilot data of the small bit pattern in the memory cell. The data detection part detects the pilot data stored in the memory cell. A channel information estimating unit(150) estimates the channel information of the memory cell based on detected data.

A memory device and a memory reading method thereof are provided to improve the performance of an error correction by performing the ECC(Error Correction Code) decoding of the data read from the multi bit cells. A memory device(100) includes a multi bit cell array(110), an error detector(120), and a data estimator(130). The error detector reads a first data page from a memory page(111) inside the multi bit cell array. The error detector performs ECC decoding of the first data page and detects the error bit of the first data page. The estimator identifies the multi bit cell with an error bit. The estimator estimates the data of the second data page stored in the identified multi bit cell.
