Abstract

A method setting a read voltage to minimize data read errors in a semiconductor memory device including multi-bit memory cells. In the method, a read voltage associated with a minimal number of read data error is set based on a statistic value of a voltage distribution corresponding to each one of a plurality of voltage states.
