Device and memory system for swappable memory
First Claim
1. A memory unit connectable to a host system comprising;
- a substrate;
an interface unit formed to the substrate;
first and second non-volatile memory chips formed to the substrate; and
a memory management unit formed to the substrate and connected to the first and second non-volatile memory chips and the interface unit, the memory management unit comprising,an access unit reading data from memory areas of the first and second non-volatile memory chips at reading, and writing data to the memory areas of the first and second non-volatile memory chips at writing,wherein the first non-volatile memory chip is swappable when the second non-volatile memory chip is operating.

Abstract
An integrated memory management device according to an example of the invention comprises an acquiring unit acquiring a read destination logical address from a processor, an address conversion unit converting the read destination logical address into a read destination physical address of a non-volatile main memory, an access unit reading, from the non-volatile main memory, data that corresponds to the read destination physical address and has a size that is equal to a block size or an integer multiple of the page size of the non-volatile main memory, and transmission unit transferring the read data to a cache memory of the processor having a cache size that depends on the block size or the integer multiple of the page size of the non-volatile main memory.
