Abstract

A memory system includes a first memory chip that includes a first temperature sensor, and a memory controller that includes a second temperature sensor. The memory controller is configured to: perform, at a first timing, a first temperature acquisition process including acquiring a first measured temperature using the first temperature sensor or the second temperature sensor; select one of the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor for a second temperature acquisition process based the first measured temperature; and perform, at a second timing later than the first timing, the second temperature acquisition process including acquiring a second measured temperature using the selected one of the first temperature sensor or the second temperature sensor.
