Abstract
According to one embodiment, a memory system includes a nonvolatile memory, a command managing unit, a command issuing unit, a data control unit and a command monitoring unit. The command issuing unit issues a command received by the command managing unit to the nonvolatile memory. The data control unit controls a reading or writing of data to the nonvolatile memory. The command monitoring unit monitors the command managing unit and outputs a receipt signal to the data control unit when the command managing unit receives the command. The data control unit interrupts the reading or writing when receiving the receipt signal, issues the command from the command issuing unit to the nonvolatile memory, and resumes the reading or writing after issuing the command.
