Abstract
A memory apparatus of an embodiment includes a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device, an error correction circuit, a memory circuit, a data distribution circuit, and a processing circuit. The error correction circuit performs error detection in data read from the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device on a processing unit size basis and performs error correction on the data in response to its necessity. The memory circuit stores data on the processing unit size basis. The data distribution circuit transfers the data read from the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device to the error detection circuit and the memory circuit on the processing unit size basis. The processing circuit reads the data from the memory circuit and processes the data in response to the error correction circuit detecting an uncorrectable error in the data.
