    Abstract: A storage system with a data recovery function and its method reduce errors in a storage medium to a recoverable range of a general ECC function by repeating a testing and recovery procedure for one or more times to assure the accuracy of reading data and enhance the data reliability effectively. The data recovery procedure includes the steps of providing test data by a test data generator of the storage system, writing the test data into a memory block where error data is found, finding an error bit by reading the test data, reducing the error to a recoverable range of the ECC technique by the recovery procedure. If the error bit cannot be found or reduced to a recoverable range of the ECC technique within an upper limit of the number of tests, the memory block is marked as bad.

    Abstract: A method for memory space management is disclosed. It uses a resident program loaded into an operation system or the controller of a storage device to monitor the storage space and the resource allocation of the file system of the storage device. The status of the logical address with an erased and invalid data mapped with a physical block is checked via a L2P mapping table. By using a data erase instruction, the controller modifies the L2P mapping table to cancel the link relation between the physical block and the logical address and erase the physical block to release the memory space. Finally, the check location is stored for a next check. The method for memory space management improves the access speed and the usage life of the storage device.

    Abstract: A storage device capable of meeting the reliability has a storage capacity and the reliability of the storage device is defined. The storage device includes at least one first storage unit, at least one second storage unit, and a control unit. The first storage unit forms the storage capacity of the storage device. The second storage unit is allocated to form a spare capacity according to the storage capacity and the reliability. The second storage unit replaces the bad blocks in the first storage unit. The control unit controls the first storage unit and the second storage unit to transmit and convert the data with an application system. Thereby, by allocating the spare capacity of the second storage unit, the different reliability requirement is met, and the storage capacity of the first storage unit is unaffected.

    Abstract: An interface circuit connected between the functional unit and the output/input bus in a multi-chip system is disclosed. One characteristic of the present invention is that the positive voltage protecting diode located between the independent power of the functional unit and the output/input bus in the functional circuit is not required. Therefore, the signal on the output/input bus will not be distorted due to the low resistance load caused by shutting down the independent power of the functional unit. Another characteristic of the present invention is that the negative voltage protecting diode located between the output/input bus and the grounding in the functional circuit is changed to a stable voltage Zener diode. Therefore, the high voltage static electricity is guided into the grounding via the Zener diode so that the goals of anti-static electricity and protecting the functional unit are achieved.
