Abstract:
A method for performing refresh management in a memory device, the memory device and controller thereof are provided. The method may include: monitoring a temperature of the memory device, wherein the temperature is detected through a temperature sensor; updating a recorded highest temperature and a recorded lowest temperature according to said temperature; checking whether a difference between the recorded highest temperature and the recorded lowest temperature is greater than a predetermined temperature threshold; and when the difference is greater than the predetermined temperature threshold, triggering refresh of the memory device.
