Abstract: [Object] To sufficiently reduce frequency of error occurrence in memory cells. [Solution] A reading unit reads read data from a memory cell, the read data including an information bit and reversal information for determining whether or not the information bit has been reversed. In addition, an error detection/correction unit detects the presence or absence of an error in the information bit and corrects the error. A data reversing unit reverses the information bit that has the error corrected and the reversal information. Furthermore, a writing unit writes the reversed information bit and the reversed reversal information in the memory cell.

The extension area managing unit performs management so that a size of the memory extension area in the host memory is changeable.

Abstract: A data holding characteristic of a memory cell is improved in a memory system in which data is encoded and written to a memory cell. A first candidate parity generation unit generates, as a first candidate parity, a parity for detecting an error in an information section in which a predetermined value is assigned in a predetermined variable area. A second candidate parity generation unit generates, as a second candidate parity, a parity for detecting an error in the information section in which a value different from the predetermined value is assigned in the predetermined variable area. A selection unit selects a parity that satisfies a predetermined condition from among the first and second candidate parities as a selection parity. An output unit outputs a codeword constituted by the information section corresponding to the selection parity and the selection parity.

Abstract: Detecting a defective cell in a memory in consideration of an error property difference depending on the storage state. A determination unit determines whether there is a possibility of defect for each of unit-of-storages on a memory cell formed with a non-volatile memory. The non-volatile memory undergoes either a reset operation that transitions a state from a low resistive state (LRS) to a high resistive state (HRS) or a set operation that transitions the state from the high resistive state to the low resistive state. The determination unit determines a unit-of-storage in which the number of errors in predetermined one of the reset operation and the set operation has exceeded a predetermined standard, as a unit-of-storage suspected of having a defect.

Abstract: The write reliability of a nonvolatile memory is improved by performing accurate verification of write data. In a memory controller of an information processing system, a determination unit determines whether a state of a memory cell after writing data is stable in a nonvolatile memory including the memory cell having an unstable state period after writing data. A verification unit performs verification by comparing read data which is read from the memory cell where the data is written on the basis of a result of the determination, with write data involved in the writing. A write control unit performs writing of the data and rewriting of the write data based on a result of the verification.
