发明名称 A METHOD FOR USING A MULTI-BIT CELL FLASH DEVICE IN A SYSTEM NOT DESIGNED FOR THE DEVICE
摘要 A computerized system including: a processor (fig. 2, 205); and a flash memory device (fig. 2, 209) including memory cells grouped into blocks, wherein one or more of the blocks stores in M bits per cell (fig. 2, 210) an initialization program, e.g., boot code, which is retreived and executed by the processor; and wherein the processor accesses one or more of the remaning blocks storing N bits per cell (fig. 2, 212) wherein N is greater than M. N and M are integral numbers, preferably, M equals 1 and N equals 2; or M equals 1 and N equals 4; or M equals 2 and N equals 4. Preferably, the blocks storing M bits per cell is only one block. Preferably, the flash memory device is a NAND flash memory device.
