Abstract
The present technology relates to an electronic device. According to the present technology, a memory device may include a plurality of memory cells, a defect detector, and a test controller. The defect detector may generate defect information indicating a defect state in which a value of a cell current measured in a sensing operation on selected memory cells among the plurality of memory cells is less than a threshold value. The test controller may count fail bits from a result of a test operation performed on the selected memory cells using a test reference current in response to the defect information, and set a bit line voltage to be used in the sensing operation based on a comparison result between a number of fail bits detected in the test operation and a reference number.
