Abstract: According to an embodiment, when receiving a read request designating a logical address range of a particular size or more from a host, a first circuit issues a plurality of first sub-commands, each of which is a sub-command for each first data unit, in order of logical addresses. A second circuit respectively adds serial numbers corresponding to the plurality of first sub-commands in the order of issuance. A plurality of third circuits respectively executes processing of specifying locations of the first data unit based on management information for the plurality of first sub-commands in a distributed manner. A fifth circuit reorders the plurality of first sub-commands in the logical address order based on the serial numbers after the processing by the plurality of third circuits. A sixth circuit executes a read operation on a first memory based on the plurality of first sub-commands reordered in the order of logical addresses.

Abstract: A memory system is configured to be connected to a host. The memory system includes a non-volatile first memory, a second memory, and a controller configured to manage cache data stored in the second memory in units of a segment such that each segment includes a plurality of pieces of the cache data. Each of the plurality of pieces of the cache data includes mapping information which correlates a logical address value indicating a location in a logical address space provided by the memory system to the host with a location in the first memory. At least two pieces of the cache data are arranged in one segment without a space therebetween.

Abstract: An object of the present invention to provide a pulse width modulation waveform generating circuit that it is possible to reduce circuit size and power consumption. A pulse width modulation waveform generating circuit comprises a ring oscillator having 64 pieces of inverters connected in series, inverters connected to output terminals of odd numbered stages of inverters in the ring oscillator, a multiplexer, a change detecting circuit, and an RS flip-flop. The multiplexer is supplied with output signals of even numbered stages of the inverters in the ring oscillator and output signal of the inverter. One of their signals is selected in accordance with logic of a digital signal. The RS flip-flop is set at time an edge detecting pulse is outputted from the change detecting circuit, and is reset at time an edge detecting pulse is outputted from the change detecting circuit.
