Abstract:
A method for automatically detecting a plurality of parameters for a NAND-Flash memory. A first step of the method may include generating a plurality of address cycles for the NAND-Flash memory. A second step may set an address number parameter of the parameters based on (i) a first number of the address cycles generated and (ii) a status signal generated by the NAND-Flash memory responsive to the address cycles. A third step generally includes generating at least one read cycle for the NAND-Flash memory after determining the address number parameter. A fourth step may set a page size parameter of the parameters based on (i) a second number of the read cycles generated and (ii) the status signal further responsive to the read cycles.
