Abstract

The invention is a method of testing USB interface storage device, where the storage device at least contains USB interface, a USB controller linked with the USB interface, at least a semiconductor memory linked with the USB controller and the method includes the steps: USB controller receives test command transmitted by host machine through the USB interface; after the USB controller has received the test command, the USB controller makes write and read operations on the semiconductor memory and compare if the write and read data are the same, thus testing if the semiconductor memory is good or not; after the write and read test, the USB controller transmits the data of test result to the host machine through the USB interface.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a test method for testing a storage device with a semiconductor memory and the storage device thereof, in particular to a test method for testing a storage device with a USB-Universal Serial Bus (USB-Universal Serial Bus) interface, and a self-test universal Storage device with serial bus interface. Background technique [0002] Known storage devices with bulk flash memory, such as the storage device of Big Brother, its testing method is to send test data (test pattern) by the host computer, read and write the flash memory via the USB bus, write the test data into the flash memory, and then The known method of reading the flash memory and comparing the test data with the read data on the host computer takes quite a long time to complete the test, especially the test of a storage device with a large storage capacity is more time-consuming. Contents of the invention [0003] The object of the present invention is to provide a ...
