First Claim
Patent Images
1. A nonvolatile memory device which comprises:
- a memory controller; and
a nonvolatile memory and which writes a file given from an external host device into said nonvolatile memory and reads a specified file, whereinsaid memory controller comprises;
a clock part to which an initial value of time information is provided from outside and which measures time only for a period when a power is supplied;
a file system manager for generating file management information including the time information measured by said clock part in writing of a file; and
a control part for writing the file management information generated by said file system manager and files into said nonvolatile memory.

Abstract
A nonvolatile memory device has a file system manager and manages the file system of a file to be recorded. The nonvolatile memory device measures time by obtaining time information from outside in each writing file data or based on time information preliminarily obtained. At the time of writing file data, management information of the file system is configured based on the time information at the time. Thus, the time information can be stored in a file entry table, and the time information can be used as file management information. The nonvolatile memory system with high user'"'"'s convenience can be provided.
