Memory device for storing plurality of data bits and method of operating the same

Abstract

The present technology relates to a semiconductor device. According to the present technology, a memory device capable of dividing and storing a plurality of data bits in a plurality of memory cells may include a plurality of memory cells each configured to have a state among a plurality of states, a code table generator configured to generate, based on a plurality of data bits, a code table indicating the plurality of states as code patterns formed by parts of the data bits, the parts corresponding to the respective memory cells, and an internal operation controller configured to divide and store a plurality of target data bits in the plurality of memory cells based on the code table during a program operation.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
