Description

ABSTRACT:
In a data recording apparatus and method of dividing a chapter automatically and recording the same in recording data onto a semiconductor memory card. The apparatus includes means for detecting sound and sound-free sections of audio data currently being recorded; means for ending the current recording operation if a sound-free section is detected for a time set by the sound and sound-free section detecting means; means for storing a chapter number which is updated, a start address, and time data in the TOC area of the IC memory card if a sound section of audio data is detected when the recording operation ends in the recording ending means; and means for storing the chapter number, start address, and time data and recording audio data in a new chapter. Therefore, since the chapter division is automatically performed, repeated key manipulations are not necessary.
