Patent number: 10698617Abstract: According to one embodiment, a memory system includes: a non-volatile memory including a first area configured to hold first data received from an outside and a second area configured to hold second data; a volatile memory; and a controller. The non-volatile memory holds third data that associates a first address of the first data assigned to an instruction received from an outside with a second address of the first data that specifies a part of the first area. As a startup operation, the controller reads the third data from the non-volatile memory and holds the third data as fourth data in the volatile memory. The controller erases the fourth data from the volatile memory when the second data is held in the second area.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2019Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: Toshiba Memory CorporationInventors: Paiching Hsiao, Nobuhiro Ono
