Abstract
A memory system includes an error detection circuit having an error counter. When a bit error rate (BER) determined by the error counter exceeds a reference BER, the memory system reduces the BER by adjusting its operating speed or operating voltage, re-performing data training or impedance matching, or by adjusting a data swing width. Accordingly, a method of controlling a bit error rate may be performed, and a system hang is prevented.
