  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18340950 Titled 'MEMORY DEVICE, MEMORY CONTROLLER, AND MEMORY SYSTEM INCLUDING THE SAME'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a memory system that consists of a memory device and a memory controller. The memory device has multiple memory blocks, each containing several memory cells stacked vertically. The memory controller is responsible for controlling the memory operations of the memory device. It can choose and implement different control schemes for each memory block based on the number of not-open strings in each block.


Original Abstract Submitted

A memory system includes a first memory device including a plurality of first memory blocks each including a plurality of first memory cells stacked in a direction perpendicular to a substrate; and a memory controller configured to control a memory operation of the first memory device. The memory controller is configured to select and operate any one of different control schemes for each of the first memory blocks based on a number of first not-open (N/O) strings included in each of the first memory blocks, respectively.
