Abstract

It is possible to solve the problem that a memory block of a group containing information frequently updated quickly reaches the rewrite service life end when the number of spare blocks prepared in a non-volatile semiconductor recording medium cannot be modified or when the memory block is divided into a plurality of groups so as to be processed alternately. The non-volatile semiconductor recording medium includes a partition management information area and a partition area. Partition area start position information is recorded in the partition management information area. The start position information contains a value assuring a predetermined area between the end of the partition management information area and the head of the partition area. The area assured between the end of the partition management information area and the head of the partition area is set to a state where data is physically erased.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a nonvolatile semiconductor recording medium and a method of recording information in the medium. Background technique [0002] In recent years, a semiconductor memory card built with a nonvolatile semiconductor recording medium capable of electronically recording and erasing data and retaining data even after power failure has been widely used. Since this card requires a smaller number of mechanically active parts than conventional tape media and magnetic disk media, devices for recording and reproducing data with respect to this semiconductor memory card can be constructed to reduce size, weight, and occurrence of mechanical failure. Storage elements have increasingly larger capacities and higher recording / reproducing rates, and such semiconductor memory cards are beginning to be used in image and audio recording applications. [0003] Information such as audio and images recorded in such a semiconductor memory card ...
