A flash memory controller includes a specific buffer and a processor. The specific buffer allocates a cache space. The processor receives a specific host address sent from the host device, reads and loads a corresponding address pointer mapping table from the flash memory into the cache space according to address information pointed by a specific address pointer linker, determines a specific address pointer corresponding to the specific host address from the corresponding address pointer mapping table according to the specific host address, reads and loads a corresponding address mapping table from the flash memory into the cache space according to address information pointed by a specific address pointer corresponding to the specific host address, and finds a specific flash memory address from the corresponding address mapping table according to the specific host address to perform an access operation in response to the found specific flash memory address.

A memory device includes a memory die, a non-volatile memory circuit, and a logic die. The memory die includes a first memory space and a second memory space. The non-volatile memory circuit stores a repair table file corresponding to the first memory space. The logic die is coupled to the memory die and the non-volatile memory. The logic die selectively accesses the first memory space or the second memory space of the memory die according a comparing result of an input address and the repair table file. The memory die and is different from the logic die.
