Abstract
A storage device including a processor, a controller, and a switch is provided. The processor is configured to control a logic circuit. When a main reset signal is enabled, the processor generates a sub-reset signal according to the operation status of the logic circuit. The controller generates a mask signal according to the main reset signal and the sub-reset signal. When the mask signal is enabled, the switch does not transmit the main reset signal to the logic circuit. When the mask signal is not enabled, the switch transmits the main reset signal to the logic circuit to reset the logic circuit.
