Abstract: A recording medium in the present disclosure is a recording medium connected to a host device, and includes a memory, a control unit that controls the memory, and an interface unit that communicates with the host device. The interface unit transmits setting information including a rising temperature which is a temperature difference between a surface and an inside of the recording medium, and receives a threshold temperature of thermal throttling from the host device, and the control unit controls an operation based on the threshold temperature.

Abstract: A memory card is configured to be inserted into and removed from a connector provided in a host device, and includes: a memory that stores heat dissipator information on a heat dissipator of the memory card; and a processor that returns a response including the heat dissipator information in response to a command for inquiring heat dissipation performance transmitted from the host device.

Abstract: When a host-slave system including a host device and a slave device transitions to a power-down mode, the host device drives a CMD line in order of a high level, a low level, and a high level, and stops supplying a clock signal after a predetermined time elapses. During a power-down mode period, the slave device stops supplying a power to a back-end module. When the host device resumes the supply of the clock signal, the host-slave system returns from the power-down mode.

Abstract: When a part of a signal line of a first interface and a part of a signal line of a second interface share a signal line and there is a memory connected to both the interfaces, initialization of the second interface and initialization of the memory are executed in parallel following initialization of the first interface.

Abstract: A card device according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: a first interface that connects the card device with a host device. The card device notifies, through the first interface, the host device of whether or not the card device includes a second interface different from the first interface.

Abstract: An address at which a writing error occurs is held, and after a completion of a series of writings, the data of the held address is read. Then, a faulty-block processing is performed only for the addresses, for which it is determined that retry of writing is required, thereby preventing an increase of faulty-blocks. This can suppress the problem that when a writing is performed in a particular flash memory, a writing error frequently occurs and a large number of faulty blocks occur.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus reads a digital data stream including a video signal and/or an audio signal outputted from an external apparatus according to a transmission clock different from a clock for the data stream, and outputs the video signal and/or audio signal without causing any discontinuity. The electronic apparatus includes a sample rate converter that rate-converts a predetermined volume of the audio signal in synchronization with a constant sampling clock, and changes a number of samples to be outputted, based on a data volume of an audio signal outputted by the electronic apparatus and a data volume of an audio signal transmitted from the external apparatus or transmittable from the external apparatus to the electronic apparatus.

Abstract: A source block (B0) and the logical page number (“8”) of a write target page are identified from the logical address of the write target page. Data objects (DN8, DN9, . . . , DN12) to be written, which a host stores in a page buffer (2), are written into the data areas (DA) of the pages (Q0, Q1, . . . , Q4) of a destination block (Bn), starting from the top page (Q0) in sequence. The logical page number (“8”) of the write target page is written into the redundant area (RA) of the top page (Q0). The physical page number (“6=8?2”) of the write target page is identified, based on the logical page number (“8”) of the write target page and the page offset (“2”) of the source block (B0). When notified by the host of the end of the sending of the data objects (DN8, . . . , DN12), the data items (D13, . . . , D31, D0, D1, . . . , D7) in the source block (B0) are transferred to the pages (Q5, Q6, . . .
