Abstract
A memory system includes a memory chip and a memory controller. The memory chip has a first plane and a second plane. A threshold voltage corresponding to multiple bit data is set for each of the memory cells. The memory controller causes the memory chip to execute a first read process on the first plane and the second plane in parallel by using a plurality of first read voltages different from each other for the first plane and the second plane. The first read process being a process of reading a data group of one bit among the multiple bits by using the first read voltages. The memory controller subsequently adjusts the voltage levels of the first read voltages on the basis of the data group read from the memory cells of the first plane and the data group read from the memory cells of the second plane.
