Presented herein is a memory device and a method of operating the memory device. The memory device may include a memory cell, and a page buffer coupled to the memory cell via a bit line and configured to perform a read operation on the memory cell. The page buffer may include a storage unit configured to control a bit line precharge operation during the read operation and to store a result value of a first sensing operation. After the bit line precharge operation, a value stored in the storage unit is inverted before the storage unit stores the result value of the first sensing operation.

Memory device and method of operating the same

A memory device includes a plurality of memory cells, bit lines connected to the plurality of memory cells, and page buffers coupled to the plurality of memory cells through the bit lines, and performing a read operation on the plurality of memory cells, wherein each of the page buffers comprises: a first latch controlling a bit line precharge operation during the read operation; and a second latch storing a result of a first sensing operation and a result of a second sensing operation performed after the first sensing operation, wherein a value stored in the second latch is inverted when the result of the first sensing operation and the result of second sensing operation are different from each other during the second sensing operation.
