Abstract: A nonvolatile memory device includes a memory block, a page buffer circuit and a control circuit. The page buffer circuit is connected to the cell strings through bit-lines. The control circuit controls a read operation by: latching a first sensing data and a second sensing data in the page buffer circuit by performing a first read operation on a selected word-line designated by an access address based on a read voltage set; latching a third sensing data in the page buffer circuit by performing a second read operation on an aggressor word-line adjacent to the selected word-line, based on at least one adjacent read voltage; selecting one of the first sensing data and the second sensing data as a hard decision data based on a program state of the third sensing data; and generating a soft decision data by using the first sensing data and the second sensing data.

Abstract: Aggressor memory cells connected to one or more aggressor wordlines are grouped into aggressor cell groups by performing a read operation with respect to the aggressor wordlines based on one or more grouping read voltages, where the aggressor wordlines are adjacent to a selected wordline corresponding to a read address among wordlines of a memory block. Selected memory cells connected to the selected wordline are grouped into a selected cell groups respectively corresponding to the aggressor cell groups. Group read conditions respectively corresponding to the selected cell groups are determined and group read operations are performed with respect to the plurality of selected cell groups based on the group read conditions. The read errors are reduced by grouping the selected memory cells into the selected cell groups according to the change of operation environments.

Abstract: A nonvolatile memory device includes a memory block including a memory area, an on-chip valley search (OVS) circuit performing an OVS sensing operation on the memory block, and a buffer memory storing at least one variation table including variation information of a threshold voltage of memory cells, obtained from the OVS sensing operation. A reading operation including an OVS sensing operation and a main sensing operation on the memory area is performed in response to a read command applied by a memory controller, the OVS sensing operation is performed at an OVS sensing level, and the main sensing operation is performed at a main sensing level reflecting the variation information. In the nonvolatile memory device, correction accuracy for deterioration of a word line threshold voltage may be improved, and a burden on a memory controller may be reduced.

Abstract: A memory device may determine cell count information from a threshold voltage distribution of memory cells and may determine a detection case based on the cell count information when an error in read data, received from the memory device performing a read operation is not corrected. A memory controller may control the memory device to execute a read operation using a development time determined in consideration of an offset voltage of a read voltage corresponding to the detection case. When an error in the read data is successfully corrected, the memory controller may update a table, stored in the memory controller, using a dynamic offset voltage obtained by inputting the cell count information to a machine learning model.
