Abstract

A memory system includes a memory device including a first memory block used for power-loss data protection and a controller coupled to the memory device. The controller includes a hardware layer and a firmware layer. The hardware layer checks whether at least one write data entry belongs to a programmable range in the memory device after power loss occurs, determines whether a logical address associated with the at least one write data entry is repeated, and programs the at least one write data entry in the first memory block.
