Abstract:
Provided is a user-friendly information processing system which is capable of maintaining latency within a fixed range and ensuring the expandability of a memory capacity at high speed and low cost. The information processing system, including an information processing device, a volatile memory, and nonvolatile memories, is configured. The information processing device, the volatile memory, and the nonvolatile memories are connected in series with one another to reduce the number of connection signals, thereby realizing speeding-up while maintaining the expandability of the memory capacity. The information processing device manages response time zones and time zones where responses overlap one another, and performs a correction operation on the latency, thereby realizing fast data transfer while maintaining the latency within the fixed range. The information processing device performs an error correction to improve the reliability when transferring the data of the nonvolatile memories to the volatile memory. The information processing system composed of a plurality of chips is configured as an information processing system/module in which the respective chips are arranged in layers, and wired together by a through via.
