A memory device includes multiple word lines. A method of operating the memory device includes: performing a first dummy read operation, with respect to first memory cells connected to a first word line among the word lines, by applying a dummy read voltage, having an offset level of a first level, to the first word line; determining, based on a result of the performing of the first dummy read operation, degradation of a threshold voltage distribution of the first memory cells; adjusting an offset level of the dummy read voltage as a second level, based on a result of the determining of the threshold voltage distribution; and performing a second dummy read operation with respect to second memory cells connected to a second word line among the word lines, by applying a dummy read voltage, having the offset level adjusted as the second level, to the second word line among the word lines.

Non-volatile memory device, operating method thereof, and storage device including the non-volatile memory device

A memory device may include an input/output control unit for receiving input signals through an input/output bus, and a control logic unit for receiving control signals, and when the control signals satisfy first through fourth conditions, the control logic unit identifies a command, an address, data and an identifier of the memory device in the input signals, and latches the input signals. The fourth condition is different from the first through third conditions.

Memory device and a memory system including the same

Some embodiments of the present invention provide data storage systems including a plurality of memories and a control circuit coupled to the plurality of memories by a common channel. The control circuit is configured to sequentially transfer respective units of data to respective memories within each of a plurality of predetermined groups of the plurality of memories over the common channel and to transition from transferring units of data to a first one of the groups to transferring units of data to a second one of the groups based on an attribute of the units of data. The attribute may be related to a programming time associated with a unit of data. For example, the attribute may include a bit significance of the unit of data.
