Abstract
A memory system of embodiments includes a container, a first circuit board, a second circuit board, and an optical cable. The container has a hole connecting inside and outside the container. The first circuit board is disposed outside the container and has a first circuit to convert a first electric signal to an optical signal. The second circuit board is disposed inside the container and has a memory device, and a second circuit to convert the optical signal into a second electric signal and storing the second electric signal in the memory device. The optical cable transmits the optical signal from the first circuit board through the hole to the second circuit board.
Claims9
A memory system, comprising:
- a container including an outer container and an inner container disposed in the outer container, the container forming a heat insulation structure between the outer container and the inner container, the container including a hole connecting an inside of the inner container and an outside of the outer container;
- a first circuit board disposed outside the outer container, the first circuit board having a first circuit configured to convert a first electric signal to an optical signal;
- a second circuit board housed inside the inner container, the second circuit board having
- a memory device and
- a second circuit configured to:
- convert the optical signal into a second electric signal, and
- store the second electric signal in the memory device;
- and
- an optical cable configured to transmit the optical signal from the first circuit board to the second circuit board through the hole;
- wherein the heat insulation structure includes a vacuum laver between the outer container and the inner container.
A memory apparatus using an optical cable, comprising:
- a container including an outer container and an inner container disposed in the outer container, the container forming a heat insulation structure between the outer container and the inner container, the container including a hole connecting an inside of the inner container and an outside of the outer container for leading the optical cable therethrough;
- and
- a circuit board housed in the inner container,
- the circuit board including;
- a memory device,
- a light receiving circuit configured to receive an optical signal to be sent through the optical cable,
- a conversion circuit configured to convert the optical signal received by the light receiving circuit into an electric signal to be stored in the memory device,
- wherein the heat insulation structure includes a vacuum laver between the outer container and the inner container.
