Abstract:
A method for operating a flash memory is provided. The flash memory comprises a controller, a cache, and a plurality of blocks. By using a cache to preload data from the host, the buffer of the controller can be smaller than the capacity of a single block or omitted entirely. Smooth data transmission is still maintained.
