Abstract: According to one embodiment, a nonvolatile memory includes a plurality of memory areas and controller circuit including an error correction code encoder. The error correction code encoder encodes a first data to generate a first parity in a first operation and encodes a second data to generate a second parity in a second operation. The controller circuit writes the first data and the first parity into a first memory area among the plurality of memory areas and writes the second data and the second parity into a second memory area among the plurality of memory areas. The size of the second data is smaller than the size of the first data and the size of the second parity is equal to the size of the first parity.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a memory system includes a nonvolatile memory and a memory controller. The memory controller is configured: to store, in a buffer, a data set read from a cell unit, and an expected data set generated by an error correction on the data set; to count a number of first and second memory cells corresponding to a first and a second combination of data in the data set and the expected data set, respectively, among the memory cells in the cell unit; to calculate a shift amount of a read voltage used in a read operation from the cell unit, based on the number of the first and second memory cells; and to apply the shift amount to a next read operation from the first cell unit.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a memory controller includes an encoder, a randomizing circuit, and an interface. The encoder subjects first data received from an external device to error correction coding. The randomizing circuit randomizes second data output from the encoder. The interface transmits third data output from the randomizing circuit to a nonvolatile semiconductor memory and controls write/read of the nonvolatile semiconductor memory. The interface transmits data of a size larger than or equal to a size of a write unit of the nonvolatile semiconductor memory to the nonvolatile semiconductor memory in a write sequence.
