发明名称 Memory systems including defective block management and related methods
摘要 A memory system may include a plurality of non-volatile memory cells and a memory controller coupled to the plurality of non-volatile memory cells. The plurality of non-volatile memory cells may be arranged in blocks with each block including a plurality of pages of non-volatile memory cells. Moreover, the plurality of non-volatile memory cells may include a plurality of data blocks of non-volatile memory cells, a plurality of reserved blocks of non-volatile memory cells, and at least one management block of non-volatile memory cells. The memory controller may be configured to receive a data address for a page of non-volatile memory cells of a data block during a memory access operation, and to determine if the page of non-volatile memory cells corresponding to the data address is identified as being defective in the at least one management block. If the page of non-volatile memory cells corresponding to the data address is identified as being defective in the at least one management block, the memory controller may be further configured to direct the memory access operation to a page of a reserved block of non-volatile memory cells. Related methods are also discussed.
