MEMORY SYSTEM INCLUDING PLURALITY OF MEMORY REGIONS AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME

摘要

A method of a memory system including memory regions includes performing error corrections for chunks in each of the memory regions, and computing trust levels corresponding respectively to the memory regions based on the error corrections, setting test-reading periods corresponding respectively to the memory regions, based on the trust levels for the memory regions, counting a number of normal-reading times for each of the memory regions, and managing access counts corresponding respectively to the memory regions based on the counted numbers and when an access count for a first memory region among the memory regions reaches a time corresponding to a test-reading period for the first memory region, performing one or more test-readings for the first memory region.

1. A method of operating a memory system including memory regions, the method comprising:
performing error corrections for chunks in each of the memory regions, and computing trust levels corresponding respectively to the memory regions based on the error corrections; setting test-reading periods corresponding respectively to the memory regions, based on the trust levels for the memory regions; counting a number of normal-reading times for each of the memory regions, and managing access counts corresponding respectively to the memory regions based on the counted numbers; and when an access count for a first memory region among the memory regions reaches a time corresponding to a test-reading period for the first memory region, performing one or more test-readings for the first memory region.
