Embodiment
Fig. 2 A is the calcspar of a safety digital storage device according to an embodiment of the invention.Safety digital storage device 20 comprises controller 21, storage chip 22 and 23, and change-over switch 24 and 25.This controller 21 is connected to storage chip 22 and 23.
Safety digital storage device 20 has an automated back-up pattern.When operating in this automated back-up pattern, this controller 21 is planned to a main memory block with the storage space of storage chip 22, and the storage space of storage chip 23 is planned to a back-up storage district.This main memory block equates with the memory capacity in this back-up storage district, uses that the back-up storage district can be stored and the identical data in main memory block.Therefore, the main memory block that can plan and the memory capacity in this back-up storage district are less value in storage chip 22 and 23 fens other memory capacity.Can use the storage chip 22 and 23 of same capability in the design, avoid the waste of storage space.
When this safety digital storage device 20 during in this automated back-up pattern, the reader device (not shown) that safety digital storage device 20 connected can identify storage volume that safety digital storage device 20 the has storage volume for this main memory block.This reader device then can be according to need, and addressing writes data to safety digital storage device 20, by controller 21 data distributed according to addressing to write in the main memory block of storage chip 22.Controller 21 writes to identical data position corresponding in the back-up storage district of storage chip 23 then, has promptly stored a Backup Data.
Change-over switch 24 is a read-only function change-over switch and a primary importance is arranged and a second place.This reader device can be discerned the position of this change-over switch 24, when change-over switch 24 during in a primary importance, and the normal access safety digital storage device 20 of reader device; When change-over switch 24 during in a second place, the reader device restriction writes the data of safety digital storage device 20, and only allows the data read operation to safety digital storage device 20.
In this example, further utilize change-over switch 25 and characteristic thereof, do one and switch operation, allow the user can select to read the data in this main memory block or this back-up storage district easily.Can be provided with one in the change-over switch 25 and switch the testing circuit (not shown), detect the position of this change-over switch; When change-over switch 25 during in primary importance, it is invalid that this change detection circuit makes this switching signal; When change-over switch 25 during in the second place, this change detection circuit makes this switching signal for effectively.If this switching signal is invalid and this safety digital storage device 20 response datas when reading, this controller 21 reads the data of this main memory block to respond this data read operation; If when this switching signal read for effective and these safety digital storage device 20 response datas, this controller 21 read the data in this back-up storage district to respond this data read operation.
In the present embodiment, safety digital storage device 20 can cooperate the function of traditional reader device fully, in change-over switch 24 during, accept data and write the data of depositing in this main memory block and this back-up storage district simultaneously and when data read, responding this main memory block in this primary importance.Change-over switch 24 is when this second place, and the reader device restriction writes the data of safety digital storage device 20, and only allows the data read operation to safety digital storage device 20, and responds the data in this back-up storage district when data read.
Use embodiments of the invention; the wherein stored data of safety digital storage device have better protection; same data storing is in different storage chips; if wherein a storage chip also can be read the data that are stored in another chip same position because the infringement of environment causes unexpected damage.
Fig. 2 B is the synoptic diagram of a mode standard of the configuration of the changeable passbacks system of the safety digital storage device 20 among Fig. 2 A.During this mode standard, safety digital storage device 20 can obtain bigger memory space, utilizes storage chip 22 and 23 to store different data respectively.When this mode standard, this controller 21 is planned to a standard storage district with the storage space merging of this storage chip 22 and 23.It is one program control that this controller 21 can receive, and switching operation modes is this mode standard or this automated back-up pattern.
This controller 21 also can comprise a register (not shown) and write different setting values and work in this mode standard or this automated back-up pattern to set it for this program.Controller 21 is carried out the different operating of this mode standard or this automated back-up pattern then according to different setting values.
Though the present invention discloses as above with preferred embodiment; right its is not in order to limit the present invention; those skilled in the art can do some changes and retouching under the premise without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, so protection scope of the present invention is as the criterion with claim of the present invention.
