Abstract
There are provided a memory controller and a memory system having the same. The memory controller includes: a control processor configured to set groups of memory blocks among memory blocks in a memory device to respective super blocks based on reference values, and store and execute firmware blocks respectively allocated to the super blocks; and a buffer memory configured to store information regarding the super blocks set by the control processor.
Claims21
A memory controller controlling a memory device, the memory controller comprising:
- a control processor configured to allocate memory blocks to super blocks based on reference values, and to allocate one or more firmware blocks to each of the super blocks;
- wherein the reference values are calculated using an input/output speed of the memory device, a page size of the memory device, and a number of planes included in the memory device.
A memory system comprising:
- a memory device including memory blocks having a plurality of planes;
- and
- a memory controller configured to allocate memory blocks to super blocks based on reference values and to allocate one or more firmware blocks to the super blocks, and
- wherein the reference values are calculated using an input/output speed of the memory device, a page size of the memory device, and a number of planes included in the memory device.
