Microcontroller which serves as the hardware backbone for the flash controller algorithm.
USB 2.0 Interface Controller with high speed (480 Mbps) device function. This block interfaces with the
host system via the USB interface.
Flash Interface Controller that serves as the interface to the NAND flash components. It supports all
the major NAND flash memory manufacturers.
Flash Storage Management Algorithm Block is responsible for the flash management, including wear
leveling, bad block management, and Error Detection and Correction.
ECC block is responsible for on-the-fly error correction.
Sector Buffer for optimized performance.
SRAM for running controller firmware fast and efficient.
ROM for storing controllers boot code.
