Abstract:
A refresh method for a non-volatile memory for preventing disturb phenomenon includes reading data of a memory unit of the non-volatile memory at a first time point within a predefined period and storing the data in a buffer, determining whether data of the memory unit and data of the buffer are identical at a second time point within the predefined period, so as to generate a determination result, and refreshing the memory unit according to the determination result.
