Abstract
Provided is a storage device that includes a plurality of magnetic memory devices and a selection circuit that selects a desired magnetic memory device from the plurality of magnetic memory devices, in which the plurality of magnetic memory devices includes a first magnetic memory device having a characteristic that changes according to an environmental value, and a second magnetic memory device having a characteristic different from the characteristic of the first magnetic memory device. Further, the selection circuit exclusively selects the first magnetic memory device and the second magnetic memory device based on a detection result of the environmental value.
Claims13
A storage device, comprising:
