Abstract
The present technology includes a method of operating a controller capable of controlling a semiconductor memory device including a plurality of memory cells. The method of operating the controller includes sensing error correction failure of data read from the semiconductor memory device, generating a new read voltage for re-reading the data, determining whether the new read voltage belongs to an allowable range depending on a read voltage statistical value of previous read voltages according to which error corrections were successful on previously read data, and determining, based on a result of the determining whether the new read voltage belongs to the allowable range, a read voltage to be used in a next read operation of re-reading the data.
