Abstract
In one example embodiment, a memory system includes a hierarchical first-in first-out (FIFO) memory configured to store data, and a FIFO controller configured to control inputting and outputting of data to and from the FIFO memory, wherein the FIFO memory includes a first layer. The first layer includes a high-speed input FIFO memory configured to receive data from an external device and a high-speed output FIFO memory configured to output data to the external device. The FIFO memory further includes a second layer. The second layer includes a main FIFO memory configured to receive data from the high-speed input FIFO memory and output data to the high-speed output FIFO memory.
