Abstract
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, a method, and an apparatus for reading partial data of a page on multiple data planes are provided. A processor core when loading and executing program code is arranged operably to: select at least two flash-memory access commands, which individually reads data whose length (e.g., 4KB or 8KB) is shorter than a length (e.g., 16KB) of one page across data planes for a logical unit number (LUN) according to the content of scheduling table; integrate the selected flash-memory access commands into one MPR-Lite command; drive a flash interface to perform a multi-page read lite (MPR-Lite) operation by executing the MPR-Lite command rather than the flash-memory access commands to read data from the LUN; and reply with read data to a host. Therefore, the time delay between the execution of selected flash-memory access commands would be reduced.
