Abstract

The present technology relates to a memory device and a method of operating the same. The memory device includes a memory cell array including a plurality of memory cells, a data register connected to the memory cell array through a bit line and configured to store data sensed through the bit line, a cache register configured to cache the data stored in the data register, and a control logic configured to control a caching operation of receiving a cache read command from a memory controller and storing the data, which is stored in the data register, in the cache register, during a cache read period, in response to the cache read command, wherein the control logic controls the caching operation based on whether the cache read command is a first command received after receiving a normal read command from the memory controller.
