A memory device including a first substrate, a peripheral circuit provided on the first substrate, a first metal bonding layer provided on the peripheral circuit, a second metal bonding layer directly bonded to the first metal bonding layer, a memory cell array provided on the second metal bonding layer; and a second substrate provided on the memory cell array. A page buffer circuit in the peripheral circuit receives a verification result through the metal bonding layers, divides the verification result into stages, and sequentially outputs the verification result for the division into the stages, and a pass/failure checker in the peripheral circuit sequentially performs a counting operation about each of the stages to generate accumulated values, and compares the accumulated values and a reference value which increases from an initial value as the counting operation is performed, and the initial value is set by an external memory controller.

Nonvolatile memory device

Nonvolatile memory device, storage device, and operation method of storage device

A program verification method for a nonvolatile memory device includes performing a first failure bit counting operation about a first stage to generate a first failure bit accumulated value and comparing the first failure bit accumulated value and a first failure reference value to determine a program failure. When the first failure bit accumulated value is less than the first failure reference value, a second failure bit counting operation for a second stage is performed to generate a second failure bit accumulated value. The second failure bit accumulated value is compared to a second reference value to determine a program failure. The second failure reference value is different from the first failure reference value.

Nonvolatile memory device and program method and program verification method thereof

A storage device includes a nonvolatile memory device and a controller configured to generate a read command according to a request of an external host device and transmit the read command to the nonvolatile memory device. The nonvolatile memory device is configured to perform a read operation in response to the read command, to output read data to the controller, and to store information of the read operation in an internal register.

Storage device including nonvolatile memory device and controller and operating method of the storage device

A nonvolatile memory device is provided as follows. A memory cell array includes a plurality of memory cells. An address decoder provides a first verify voltage to selected memory cells among the plurality of memory cells in a first program loop and provides a second verify voltage to the selected memory cells in a second program loop. A control logic determines the second program loop as a verify voltage offset point in which the first verify voltage is changed to the second verify voltage based on a result of a verify operation of the first program loop.
