Abstract

A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array and a column access circuit. The memory cell array includes a plurality of sub-array blocks and each of the sub-array blocks includes volatile memory cells. The column access circuit receives a plurality of data units, each of which includes normal data and meta data having a ratio of k:, which is associated with managing the normal data, allocates p column selection lines associated with transferring the data units to the bit-lines to a plurality of normal data and a plurality of meta data in the data units with the ratio of k:, and stores a sub unit of a first normal data among the plurality of normal data and a sub unit of a first meta data in a first region and a second region of a first sub-array block of the plurality of sub-array blocks, respectively.
