Patent attributes
A flash storage chip including a single circuit board, a microcontroller, a flash memory, and a peripheral component interconnect express (PCI Express) connecting interface is provided. The microcontroller, the flash memory, and the PCI Express connecting interface are embedded on the single circuit board, and the microcontroller has a flash memory interface and a PCI Express interface. When a host writes a data into the flash storage chip, the microcontroller receives the data though the PCI Express interface and stores the data into the flash memory though the flash memory interface. When the host reads a data form the flash storage chip, the microcontroller reads the data from the flash memory though the flash memory interface and transmits the data to the host though the PCI Express interface and the PCI Express connecting interface.
