Abstract
A memory controller includes a data detection circuit configured to detect, when power is supplied after a sudden power-off (SPO), a lost write sequence index 'M' among the plural write sequence indexes, and detect first data corresponding to a write sequence index “M−1” and second data corresponding to a write sequence index “M+1”; a barrier decision circuit configured to determine, based on whether first barrier information of the first data and second barrier information of the second data are identical with each other, whether a barrier request for the first data has been received from a host; and a data recovery operation determination circuit configured to determine whether to perform a recovery operation on target data corresponding to the write sequence index “M+1” and thereafter based on whether the barrier request for the first data has been received.
