Abstract
A technique for accurate communication between a non-volatile memory and its controller. The controller accesses a storage area of the non-volatile memory through data lines, wherein the controller transmits a command through the data lines to access the storage area of the non-volatile memory. The command is further returned from the non-volatile memory to the controller through the data lines for comparison, to determine whether the command is correctly received by the non-volatile memory.
