US Patent 11461039 Nonvolatile memory that stores temperature information therein

A nonvolatile memory includes a memory array, a sensor for measuring a temperature, an interface through which a write command is to be received, and a control circuit. The control circuit is configured to write information of the temperature measured by the sensor in a data storing area of the memory array in which user data associated with the write command is not capable of being written into, when writing the user data in the memory array in response to the received write command.
