    摘要: Memory modules and methods of operating memory modules embed mapping information within blocks of memory cells to which the mapping information pertains. In particular, when a page is written for a logical data block, that page includes a snapshot of the current mapping information for that logical data block. In this manner, the last valid physical page of a logical data block will contain a physical/logical mapping of that block. Thus, instead of scanning every valid page of the memory device to rebuild the mapping information, the memory module may scan only for the last valid physical page of each logical data block. Once the last valid physical page is discovered for a logical data block, the latest mapping information for that logical data block may be read from that page.
