Abstract

According to one embodiment, a nonvolatile memory includes memory cells coupled to a word line and a control circuit. The control circuit is configured to read, from the memory cells, data including at least one partial data; determine whether or not the partial data includes an error; output, if it is determined that the partial data includes an error, the data to a memory controller; further determine, if it is determined that the partial data does not include an error, whether or not the partial data satisfies a condition; output, if it is determined that the partial data satisfies the condition, the partial data to the memory controller; and not output, if it is determined that the partial data does not satisfy the condition, the partial data to the memory controller.
