Abstract

A memory test system may include a tester and N memory devices, where N is a positive integer greater than 1. The tester may generate test signals. A K-th memory device of the N memory devices includes a plurality of K-th memory banks and a K-th decoder, where K is each positive integer equal to or smaller than N. The K-th memory banks may be configured to operate based on first internal signals and each of the K-th memory banks includes a plurality of unit blocks. The K-th decoder may be configured to convert the test signals corresponding to the first test to the first internal signals based on a K-th conversion relation and update the K-th conversion relation based on a result of the first test with respect to the K-th memory device.
