    摘要: An address comparator stores an address of data read out by a host system. Also, a buffer reads out the data from a memory and stores the data. If an address of data which is expected to be newly read out by the host system is included in addresses which have already been stored in the address comparator, the host system 1 newly reads out the data from the buffer, not from the memory. As a result, it is possible to eliminate or lessen the possibility of unintentional rewriting of data which is likely to be caused due to repeated readout of data.

    摘要: An ECC circuit can operate in a plurality of error correction modes with different correcting capabilities for data stored in a memory. The ECC circuit calculates a syndrome with respect to information data in accordance with an error correction mode set by a control part and adds a syndrome of a fixed length in which dummy bits are added to the calculated syndrome, to the information data. When code data is read out, the ECC circuit performs a correction process on the code data by using the syndrome included in the code data.

    摘要: When a host system outputs a read command to a memory controller, it measures a load count of a memory area on which a read access load is imposed. Then, when the host system judges that the load count of a memory area reaches a predetermined count, it causes the memory controller to perform an error detection on the memory area. Further, when the host system finds that an error occurs in the memory area, it causes the memory controller to perform an error correction on the memory area. This can avoid or reduce unintended rewriting due to repeated readouts.

    摘要: The Error Correction Code (ECC) circuit generates the first syndrome of write data, which have not been written to the memory. The Error Detection Code (EDC) circuit generates the second syndrome of verification read data, which have been written to the memory. The EDC circuit detects errors due only to the “read disturb phenomenon” using the second syndrome, the errors occurring in data scanned from the memory. The ECC circuit detects and corrects errors due to the “program disturb phenomenon” and the “read disturb phenomenon” using the first syndrome, the errors occurring in the data in which the errors due only to the “read disturb phenomenon” have been detected. As a result, both the circuit size and the processing time can be reduced.

    摘要: A technique allowing an improvement in the confidentiality of information stored in a memory device. A memory controller includes a key generation part that newly generates key information for use in encryption and decryption of information at every predetermined timing, and a data conversion circuit that encrypts information to be outputted to a memory device based on the information and decrypts encrypted information inputted from the memory device based on the key information.
