Patent attributes
In a command output control apparatus, one of first and second storage areas that corresponds to the smaller number of subcommands is selected as a storage area subjected to division, according to a comparison result by a subcommand number comparison unit. From partial storage areas constituting the storage area subjected to the division, a partial storage area no smaller than a predetermined size is selected as a partial storage area subjected to the division, according to a comparison result by a size comparison unit. Subcommands for accessing partial storage areas obtained by dividing the partial storage area subjected to the division are generated by an access area division unit. A subcommand for accessing the partial storage area subjected to the division is replaced with the generated subcommands. Subcommands are alternately selected from first and second subcommand groups after the replacement and outputted to a memory.
