Abstract
A memory device includes an input/output interface, a bus of SPI type coupled to the input/output interface, and a plurality of individual non-volatile memory devices connected to the bus of SPI type. The chip select inputs of each individual memory device are all connected to one and the same chip select wire of the SPI bus. The individual memory devices are further configured and controllable so as to behave, as seen by the input/output interface, as a single non-volatile memory device, the total memory space of which has a total memory capacity equal to the sum of the individual memory capacities of the individual devices.
