摘要: The disclosed invention effectively prevents fraudulent access to data whose usage is restricted to a time limit, such access attempted by manipulating the clock internal to a playback device and a terminal device. A nonvolatile memory device of the invention comprises a control circuit and a nonvolatile memory circuit which includes a storage region for restriction information to restrict access to contents information provided by web-based rental service. The restriction information includes access time limit information and access time stamp information. The control circuit performs an access decision action which comprises deciding whether access to the contents information is enabled or disabled, based on real time information which is supplied externally and the restriction information, and updating the access time stamp information to the realtime information. The control circuit decides that access is disabled if the real time information is later than the access time limit given by the access time limit information or if the real time information is earlier than the access time stamp given by the access time stamp information; otherwise, the control circuit decides that the access is enabled. The control circuit performs the access decision action, at least, at the start of access to said contents information and at the end of the access.

摘要: A memory apparatus having a rewritable nonvolatile memory, and a control circuit. The memory apparatus brings logical addresses into correspondence with physical addresses of the nonvolatile memory and retains a piece of number-of-rewrites information for each logical address. The control circuit can perform a replacement process of a piece of memory information on the nonvolatile memory. In the replacement process, a given logical address judged to have a small number of rewrites based on the number-of-rewrites information is replaced so as to correspond to a different physical address and then data is transferred according to the replacement. Even when data of the logical address smaller in the number of rewrites is assigned to the different physical address, the number of rewrites of the region is still grasped as the number of rewrites of the logical address. The data of the logical address is maintained in a condition such that it can be easily targeted for the rewrite by the replacement process even in the place to which the data is transferred. Thus, a memory cell is made less prone to accumulatively suffering disturb owing to rewrite.

摘要: When a non-volatile memory write error occurs in a card storage device containing a non-volatile memory and an error correction circuit, write data is read from the non-volatile memory and a check is made if the error can be corrected by the error correction circuit. If the error can be corrected, the write operation is ended. If the error correction circuit cannot correct the error, substitute processing is performed to write data into some other area.

摘要: High-speed memory access and transparent error detection and correction using a single error correcting means are obtained and processed by an external storage device of a host computer when sector data having an arbitrary byte width are accessed continuously according to a size of a sector unit. Consequently, the host computer always reads sector data, and at the same time, error detection and the error correction for a next sector data are simultaneously performed, thereby greatly reducing the time required for error detection and error correction, and high speed memory access can be obtained.

摘要: A semiconductor memory includes a memory block consisting of a plurality of cells, a write control section, and a read control section. The write control section sets a potential to each of the plurality of cells in such a manner that the potential corresponds to a level indicated by a bit data string obtained by arranging pieces of bit data which are stored in buffers A and B and which are to be stored in the cell in the order of the buffer A and the buffer B. The read control section has a discriminator corresponding to each of the plurality of cells. The discriminator sets a threshold voltage to a potential level that corresponds to a number of discriminating operations to be performed with respect to a corresponding cell and a result of a discriminating operation already performed with respect to the cell. As a result of these operations, the semiconductor memory can determine the pieces of bit data in the order of the buffer A and the buffer B every time the discriminating operation is performed with respect to the cell.

摘要: In response to a read command received by a system interface unit for accessing a plurality of blocks of data stored in said non-volatile semiconductor memory, a controller carries out selective read operations of blocks of data to two memories from the non-volatile semiconductor memory. The controller also carries out parallel operations of data transferring a first block of data, which has already been subjected to error detection and error correction operations by an error correction unit, from one of the two memories to a host system via said system interface unit and of data transferring of a second block of data to be subjected to the error detection and error correction operation, from said non-volatile semiconductor memory to the other of the two memories.
