Abstract: According to embodiments, a memory system includes a plurality of memory chips configuring banks, an instruction generator, and a memory controller. The instruction generator generates a plurality of instructions. The memory controller is configured to execute memory accesses to the banks based on the instructions. Each memory access comprises a first command sequence and a second command sequence. The first command sequence causes in-bank processing shortly subsequent to the first command. The second command sequence is executed subsequent to the in-bank processing. The memory controller executes successively a second command sequence to a first bank based on a first instruction and a first command sequence to the first bank based on a second instruction subsequent to the first instruction, and then starts a memory access to a second bank based on a third instruction while the first bank is executing the in-bank processing caused by the first command sequence.

Abstract: A memory system comprising: a plurality of nonvolatile memory areas capable of operating individually; and a memory controller connected to each of the memory areas individually via a ready/busy signal for interleaving an operation in the memory areas by changing a memory area as a target of an operation command, every time the operation command is transmitted, wherein the memory controller includes a priority-level managing unit that manages a level of selection priority for each memory area, so that after transmission of an operation command, the memory controller selects a memory area with a highest level of selection priority from memory areas in a ready state, to change the selected memory area to a target of a next operation command, and shifts the level of selection priority of the selected memory area at a time of next selection to a lowest level by the priority-level managing unit.
