Abstract
A memory control circuit has an error determination circuitry to determine whether an error-bit number is larger than a predetermined threshold value set based on a maximum number of error bits correctable by the error correction circuitry, when it is detected by the error detector that an error is contained in data read for verification of data written to the first memory or in data read from the first memory, and an access controller to control access to a second memory having an access priority lower than the first memory when it is determined that the error-bit number is larger than the threshold value, and to control access to the first memory without accessing the second memory when it is determined that the error-bit number is equal to or less than the threshold value.
