Hefei Core Storage Electronic Limited

A data arranging method, a memory control circuit unit and a memory storage device for flash memory are provided. The method can be applied to a flash memory with a three-dimensional (3D) structure, an embedded memory device, or a solid-state hard disk. The method includes: writing at least one piece of data to at least one second physical erasing unit of at least one first physical erasing unit, and obtaining a distribution state of valid data in a plurality of physical erasing units; adjusting a specific threshold value according to the distribution state; and when the number of the at least one first physical erasing unit is less than the specific threshold value, performing a valid data merging operation.

A data merging method for flash memory, a flash memory control circuit unit and a flash memory storage device are provided. The disclosure is applicable to a flash memory, an embedded memory device or a solid state drive of 3D structure. The method includes: selecting at least one source physical erasing unit from at least one first physical erasing unit according to a valid data count of the at least one first physical erasing unit and a valid data count of each of a plurality of memory sub-modules; and copying valid data in the at least one source physical erasing unit to at least one destination physical erasing unit to perform a valid data merging operation.

A memory management method is provided according to the invention. The method includes: reading a physical unit and updating a read count of the physical unit; scanning the physical unit if the updated read count is not less than a read count threshold; and adjusting the read count threshold according to the read count and a read error bit. Therefore, a data unit that needs to be scanned can be determined to reduce unnecessary data scanning.

A memory management method. The memory management method includes: receiving a command from a host system; sending a command sequence corresponding to the command to a rewritable non-volatile memory module; determining a delay time; and sending a plurality of polling commands to the rewritable non-volatile memory module after the delay time.

A data programming method, a memory storage device and a memory control circuit unit are provided. The method includes presetting a programming mode of a plurality of first type physical erasing units as a first programming mode, and presetting a programming mode of a plurality of second type physical erasing units as a second programming mode. The method also includes obtaining a change parameter according to usage parameters of the first type physical erasing units and the second type physical erasing units. The method further includes determining whether the change parameter matches a first change condition, and if the change parameter matches the first change condition, programming a write-data into the second type physical erasing unit by using the first programming mode.

A memory management method for a memory storage device is provided. The memory management method includes: detecting effective information of at least one operation event performed by the memory storage device in a first mode; and adjusting a threshold value according to the effective information. The threshold value is configured to determine whether to instruct the memory storage device to enter the first mode.
