Abstract
A semiconductor memory device includes a buffer die and a plurality of memory dies. An error correction code (ECC) engine in one of the memory dies performs an RS encoding on a main data to generate a parity data and performs a RS decoding, using a parity check matrix, on the main data and the parity data. The parity check matrix includes sub matrixes and each of the sub matrixes corresponds to two different symbols. Each of the sub matrixes includes two identity sub matrixes and two same alpha matrixes, the two identity sub matrixes are disposed in a first diagonal direction of the sub matrix and the two same alpha matrixes are disposed in a second diagonal direction. A number of high-level value elements in a y-th row of the parity check matrix is the same as a number of high-level value elements in a (y+p)-th row.
