Abstract: A mobile electronic device including an interface unit, a semiconductor storage device and a processor is provided. The interface unit provides a user interface to receive a user input. The semiconductor storage device includes a controller and a non-volatile memory. The non-volatile memory is coupled to the controller and includes a plurality of memory blocks. The processor is coupled to the interface unit and the semiconductor storage device. The processor sends a signal to the semiconductor storage device in response to the user input. The controller clears at least one of the memory blocks in response to the signal.

Abstract: A storage device, an electronic device, and a corresponding method for programming a memory are provided. The memory includes a plurality of cells. Each of the cells stores a plurality of bits. The bits of the memory are arranged into a plurality of pages of the memory. The method includes the following steps: receiving a host command for programming data into a first page of the memory; and performing 2Plane programming to program the data into the first page and backups the data into a second page of the memory when the first page does not consist of the most significant bits (MSBs) of the cells. The first page and the second page are located in different planes of the memory.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is related to an operating method, and a memory module with wireless communication component. An exemplary example of the invention describes the memory module providing a control unit which coupled to both a wireless communication component such as an NFC chip, and anon-volatile memory unit. The memory module exemplarily uses an eMMC bus to interconnect a cellular phone system and the control unit. It is advantaged that when any data required to be transmitted between the NFC chip and the cellular phone system, a partition is specified to the chip according a partition table for further access task.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for recycling precious metal from used printed circuit boards. The used printed circuit boards are roasted with plasma at 800 degrees Celsius for less than 10 minutes, thus producing exhaust and residue that contains the precious metal. The exhaust is treated with an exhaust-treatment system before it is released to the atmosphere. The residue is ground and turned into scraps of a diameter smaller than 2 mm. The scraps are subjected to magnetic separation, thus separating ferromagnetic scraps from non-ferromagnetic scraps. The ferromagnetic scraps are refined. The non-ferromagnetic scraps are screened, thus separating tiny non-ferromagnetic scraps from big non-ferromagnetic scraps. The tiny non-ferromagnetic scraps contain silver and gold. The big non-ferromagnetic scraps contain copper.
