Abstract: A flash storage comprises a flash memory, including a plurality of physical memory blocks, each of physical memory blocks comprising a plurality of memory segments, and a plurality of physical sectors, and each of physical sectors being further provided therein with at least a user data column and a logical address pointer column. When physical data is written into the user data column, writing logical address pointer data into the logical address pointer column of the same physical sector may be performed together by the control of a micro-controller. Furthermore, the logical address pointer data in the same memory segment are arranged to be a backup memory segment address mapping table and then stored in one physical memory block. The backup memory segment address mapping table may be loaded directly and stored into a registered memory by the micro-controller when the system boots. Thus, not only shortening the startup duration of the flash storage, but also saving the memory capacity of the registered memory and securing data access may be obtained.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a detection method used in a memory card adaptor and, more particularly, to a detection method used in an adaptor capable of inserting various kinds of memory cards. The present invention comprises mainly the steps of: a control device on an adaptor issuing an identification command to detect a memory card responsive to the identification command, and the control device issuing again a reset command to detect a reset-type memory card if there is no corresponding response; the control device continually awaiting a response signal if there is still no corresponding response; the control device entering a read/write mode corresponding to the memory card if a corresponding response is obtained after issuing the command; and the control device awaiting a read/write command of said master device. The present invention can effectively enhance detection and identification efficiency without the need of adding a hardware switching device.

Abstract: A USB device for decreasing the current at load is provided. The USB device comprises a Client USB device, having a client functional module electronically connected to a client USB controller, connected to a Digital-USB bus and a client USB Physical Layer individually, wherein the client USB Physical Layer is further connected to a Standard-USB bus. Through this Standard-USB bus, the Client USB device is connected to a host USB Physical Layer of an external host. On the other hand, via the Digital-USB bus, the Client USB device is connected to an external host without host USB Physical Layer. Because both of the Client USB device and the external host have the option of using the Digital-USB bus, hence their Physical Layers being removed or idled.
