Abstract

Provided herein may be a memory controller configured to control a memory device. The memory controller may include a map buffer, a descriptor queue, and a descriptor controller. The map buffer may sequentially store map segments of a plurality of map segments stored in the memory device. The descriptor queue may store descriptors corresponding to the respective map segments, based on a plurality of addresses of the map buffer. The descriptor controller may search for a target descriptor among the stored descriptors based on a logical address received from a host, and reorder the stored descriptors while searching for the target descriptor.
