Abstract
A nonvolatile memory apparatus which includes a plurality of terminals including a clock terminal, a command terminal and an other terminal, a control circuit, and a plurality of nonvolatile memory cells. The clock and command terminals are capable of correspondingly receiving a clock signal and commands which include read and program commands. In an operation in response to the read command, the control circuit reads data from ones of the nonvolatile memory cells, and outputs data via said the other terminal based on the clock signal and in response to the program command, the control circuit is capable of receiving data via the other terminal based on the clock signal and writes data to ones of the nonvolatile memory cells.
