Abstract

A memory controller includes: an interface configured to operably communicate with a host device; a temperature detecting circuit configured to operably detect an ambient temperature, wherein when the ambient temperature is beyond a predetermined temperature range, the temperature detecting circuit generates a control signal; and a processing circuit coupled to the interface and the temperature detecting circuit, for selecting one of a plurality of data program schemes to program data into a first storage block of a flash memory according to the control signal.
