Electronic apparatus with non-volatile memory and writing method thereof
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An apparatus for storing time-relevant data, comprising:
- a controller; and
a nonvolatile memory, the controller being coupled to the non-volatile memory, wherein the nonvolatile memory comprises at least two memory blocks, which are written by said controller once every a time unit, said two memory blocks corresponding to different addresses for storing data referring to the time unit, thereby lengthening a writing time limit of the nonvolatile memory.

Abstract
An electronic apparatus with non-volatile memory and writing method thereof. For a specific address of a memory block of a non-volatile address memory, it can be written only one time per hour. The writing time limit of the non-volatile memory is significantly lengthened with the writing method in the present invention when writing times to a specific memory block of the non-volatile memory is limited.

5. A method for writing time-relevant data to a nonvolatile memory of an electronic apparatus, comprising:
-
providing at least two different addresses of memory blocks of said nonvolatile memory for storing said data referring to the same time unit, storing a first time-relevant data to the first memory block referring to a time unit once every a time unit; and storing a second time-relevant data to the second memory block referring to said time unit once every the same time unit, thereby lengthening a writing time limit of the nonvolatile memory. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7)
