Abstract
A memory controller including a processor and configured to control a memory module including a plurality of data chips and at least one parity chip includes an error correction code (ECC) engine, the ECC engine including an ECC decoder to correct Q symbols errors in a codeword set read from the memory module, Q is a maximum natural number equal to or less than P and P is a natural number equal to or greater than four. The ECC decoder is configured to generate a syndrome including first through P-th syndrome symbols based on the read codeword set by using a parity check matrix and to perform a first ECC decoding to correct a single symbol error in the read codeword set based on the first syndrome symbol and a selected syndrome symbol corresponding to one of the second through P-th syndrome symbols.
