Abstract

See full text

A memory management method for a rewritable non-volatile memory module including physical unit unions is provided. The physical unit unions are at least partitioned into a data area and a second area. Logical unit union addresses are managed by a file system and would be allocated and mapped to the physical unit unions of the data area. The method includes executing a procedure if a programming error occurs when programming a third physical unit union of the second area. The procedure includes obtaining a second physical unit union mapped to a second logical unit union address from the data area and mapping the second logical unit union address to the third physical unit union. Accordingly, the lifespan of the rewritable non-volatile memory module would be prolonged by the method.
