Abstract

The invention discloses an NFTL data storage system applied to an NAND flash. The NFTL data storage system comprises a data access interface for obtaining a data storing / reading / deleting / updating command; a logic / physical block mapping management device for operating a logic / physical block mapping table; and a data access device for storing / reading / deleting / updating data. The data access device comprises a data storing module, a data reading module and a physical block erasing module for carrying out physical block erasing operation. The NFTL data storage system further comprises a physical block recovery device which can increase blank physical blocks, and the physical block recovery device comprises an invalid physical webpage notification module. The NFTL data storage system further comprises a physical block abrasion balance module for balancing the number of erasing times of the physical blocks. The NFTL data storage system further comprises a bad block management device used for carrying out state detection for the physical blocks and managing a bad block management table. Therefore, the NFTL data storage system which ensures the maximum number of use times and the maximum use efficiency of the NAND flash is provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of data storage, in particular to an NFTL data storage system applied to NAND memory. Background technique [0002] As a commonly used storage medium, NAND memory (NAND FLASH) is currently widely used in MID, OTT and MP3 devices, and has the advantages of high speed, high space utilization and low price. [0003] In order to complete the data mapping from the logical block address (LBA, LogicBlockAddress) used by the operating system to the physical block address (PBA, PhysicsBlockAddress) used by the memory, the flash memory (FLASH) requires a flash translation layer (FTL, Flashtranslationlayer). And NAND memory needs NFTL, NAND flash translation layer (NANDFlashTranslationLayer). [0004] Due to some inherent characteristics of NAND memory: such as reading and writing in units of physical pages and erasing in units of physical blocks, there are inherent bad blocks in physical blocks, and there are limitations on th...
