Abstract
Disclosed is an interface control circuit including an error detection unit, an error correction unit, and an adjustment control unit. The error detection unit is configured to detect whether an error occurs in error correction coded data transmitted via an interface. The error correction unit is configured to execute error correction processing of correcting the error when the error occurs. The adjustment control unit is configured to start adjustment processing of adjusting a transmission characteristic of the interface when the error occurs.
Claims29
An interface control circuit, comprising:
- an error detection unit configured to detect whether an error occurs in error correction coded data transmitted via an interface;
- an error correction unit configured to execute error correction processing of correcting the error when the error occurs;
- and
- an adjustment control unit configured to start adjustment processing of adjusting a transmission characteristic of the interface when the error occurs.
A memory system, comprising:
- an interface configured to transmit error correction coded data;
- an error detection unit configured to detect whether an error occurs in the data;
- an error correction unit configured to execute error correction processing of correcting the error when the error occurs;
- and
- an adjustment control unit configured to start adjustment processing of adjusting a transmission characteristic of the interface when the error occurs.
A method of controlling an interface control circuit, comprising:
- detecting whether an error occurs in error correction coded data transmitted via an interface, by an error detection unit;
- executing error correction processing of correcting the error when the error occurs, by an error correction unit;
- and
- starting adjustment processing of adjusting a transmission characteristic of the interface when the error occurs, by an adjustment control unit.
