A data processing method for a memory storage apparatus having physical blocks is provided. The method includes: grouping the physical blocks into a data area, a spare area and a system area; configuring a plurality of logical addresses which would be formatted into a file allocation table area having cluster entry fields, a root directory area having directory entry fields and a file area having clusters; storing a communication file from the Kcluster of the file area; recording a file description block corresponding to the communication file in the Mdirectory entry field and storing an end of cluster chain mark in the cluster entry field corresponding to the last cluster of the clusters where the communication file stores, and K and M are positive integers which are larger than one. Accordingly, the method can prevent the communication file from being overwritten after the memory storage apparatus is formatted.

Apparatus with smart card chip for storing communication file in non-volatile memory

A system, a controller, and a method thereof for transmitting data stream from a host to a peripheral device with a chip are provided. At least a part of a data stream is transmitted from the host to the peripheral device. Then, the host inerrably receives a response message generated by the chip by executing a plurality of read commands. The data stream and the response message have corresponding write tokens, and the write token of the data stream is compared with the write token of the response message to verify the accuracy of the response message.

System, controller, and method thereof for transmitting data stream

A data processing system, a controller, and a method for searching for a specific logical block are provided. Logical blocks are searched out from a peripheral unit, where data of the searched logical blocks are not yet stored in a cache memory of a master control unit. During searching for the logical blocks, a plurality of read commands are executed. The read commands are set to read data of a plurality of separated logical blocks of the peripheral unit respectively.
