Abstract
A memory controller includes a host interface circuit connectable to a host device by a bus conforming to a memory card system specification, a data buffer circuit including a buffer memory, a tag information generation circuit configured to generate tag information associated with a command received by the host interface circuit, and a first register in which the tag information generated by the tag information generation circuit is stored, and a second register into which the tag information stored in the first register is copied after the command is fetched from the host interface circuit for processing. When a read request is made from the host interface circuit to the data buffer circuit, the data buffer circuit returns read data stored in the buffer memory upon confirming that the tag information stored in the first register and the tag information stored in the second register match each other.
