Abstract

A memory device includes a mode register configured to store a first code for indicating termination resistance of the memory device and a second code for disabling a defective resistor, and an output driver including a plurality of pull-up units including a plurality of pull-up resistors and a plurality of pull-down units including a plurality of pull-down resistors. The output driver is configured to disable or enable respective pull-up resistors and pull-down resistors based on the second code, enable a subset of pull-up units from among the plurality of pull-up units including the respective pull-up resistors based on the first code, and enable a subset of pull-down unit from among the plurality of pull-down units including the respective pull-down resistors based on the first code.
