Abstract
A flash memory controller is arranged to access a flash memory module, and includes a transmission interface circuit a buffer memory, and a microprocessor. The transmission interface circuit is coupled to a host device, wherein the transmission interface circuit includes a command processing circuit, and the command processing circuit is arranged to: receive a command from the host device; utilize multiple check items to check the command to generate at least one check result; and convert the command to generate a converted command of a specific format, wherein the converted command comprises an error state field for recording the at least one check result. The buffer memory is arranged to store the converted command. The microprocessor is arranged to read the converted command from the buffer memory, and access the flash memory module according to the converted command.
