Abstract
A memory system includes a printed circuit board, at least one memory chip mounted on the printed circuit board, and a memory controller arranged on the printed circuit board and connected to 2N (where N is an integer of 2 or more) channels, the memory controller configured to perform a write operation and a read operation on the at least one memory chip. In the printed circuit board, a first subset of the channels corresponds to a first channel group configured in a point to point topology, and a remaining subset of the channels corresponds to a second channel group configured in a daisy chain topology.
