SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND MEMORY SYSTEM

摘要

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device (1, 12) capable of communicating with a host apparatus (2) includes a symbol generation unit (24), a coding unit (25), and a transmission unit (26). The symbol generation unit (24) includes a random number generation circuit (32) and generates a symbol according to a random number generated by the random number generation circuit (32). The coding unit (25) performs 8b/10b coding for the symbol. The transmission unit (26) transmits the symbol coded by the 8b/10b coding unit (25) to the host apparatus (2).
