A still image memory device includes an imaging unit, a nonvolatile memory unit that includes a first memory area and a second memory area, and a control unit that controls the nonvolatile memory unit. The control unit includes a first processing unit that stores, in the first memory area, the image data output from the imaging unit; a second processing unit that, based on memory status of the first memory area, reads and compresses image data selected from a plurality of image data stored in the first memory area, stores compressed image data in the second memory area, and destroys the image data selected from the plurality of image data stored in the first memory area; and a third processing unit that, based on memory status of the second memory area, destroys compressed image data selected from a plurality of compressed image data stored in the second memory area.

A nonvolatile memory system comprises a nonvolatile memory having a plurality of data areas; and a memory controller operative to control read and write operations to the nonvolatile memory. The memory controller successively executes read/write operations to plural sectors within a selected data area in the nonvolatile memory in accordance with a command and a sector count and sector address fed from a host device.

A communication line is connected to first and second chips, and held at a first signal level. A monitor circuit changes a signal level of the communication line from the first signal to a second signal level while one of the first and second chips uses a current larger than a reference current. When the signal level of the communication line is the second signal level, the other of the first and second chips is controlled to a wait state that does not transfer to an operating state of using a current larger than the reference current.

A memory system includes a ferroelectric memory formed by arranging a plurality of memory cells having a ferroelectric capacitor and cell transistor, a flash EEPROM formed by arranging a plurality of memory cells having a floating gate and capable of electrically erasing and writing data, a control circuit configured to control the ferroelectric memory and flash EEPROM, and an interface circuit configured to communicate with the outside. The flash EEPROM stores data. The ferroelectric memory stores at least one of root information for storing the data, directory information, the file name of the data, the file size of the data, file allocation table information storing the storage location of the data, and the write completion time of the data.

A data writing method is disclosed. In a memory system comprising a NAND flash memory and a controller which controls the memory, the memory system storing data provided from a host to the NAND flash memory, the data writing method comprises a steps of specifying a column address in which a column failure which has occurred in the NAND flash memory by the controller, and a step of, during writing into the NAND flash memory, writing data of a first logic level into a memory cell which corresponds to the specified column address regardless of write data provided from the controller.

A person identification device obtains information including biometric information of a person, detects the biometric information of at least one person from the obtained information, collates each detected biometric information with the biometric information of at least one registrant associated with group information and stored in a storage unit to thereby identify the person having the biometric information detected from the obtained information, classifies a plurality of successively identified persons into group candidates based on predetermined conditions, divides the persons of the group candidates into groups based on the group information of each person stored in the storage unit, and outputs a grouping result to an external device.
摘要:
A plurality of memory cells each storing n values (n is a natural number which is not smaller than 3) are arranged in a matrix form in a memory cell array, and each memory cell is connected with a word line and a bit line. Each memory cell stores the n-valued data by a first write operation and a second write operation. A read section sets a potential of a word line, and reads data from a memory cell in the memory cell array. If data read by the read section and written in the second write operation includes an uncorrectable error, a control section changes a potential of a word line supplied to the read section when reading data written in the first write operation.
