Writing control method and writing control system of semiconductor storage device, and portable electronic apparatus
A writing control system providing high-speed writing to a nonvolatile semiconductor storage device, includes (a) a plurality of memory elements each having: a gate electrode provided on a semiconductor layer with an intervening gate insulating film; a channel region provided beneath the gate electrode; a diffusion region provided on both sides of the channel region, having an opposite polarity to the channel region; and a memory functioning member, provided on both sides of the gate electrode, having a function of holding electric charges, (b) a memory array including a page buffer circuit, and (c) CPU controlling writing to the memory array. The CPU loads a first plane of the page buffer circuit with a first byte of data and writes with the first byte of data stored in the first plane. Further, the CPU writes a second byte of data into the second plane and writes the second byte of data having been stored in the second plane while writing the first byte of data having been stored in the first plane into the memory array.
