  • Storage device with firmware synchronization function
    Patent number: 9632719
    Abstract: A storage device includes a primary storage extension chip, a plurality of secondary storage extension chips, and a plurality of resistors. Each of the storage extension chips includes two data pins, a plurality of general purpose input/output (GPIO) pins, and a firmware. Each of the GPIO pins is connected to a power terminal through one resistor, and is grounded through a resistor, for setting a firmware version number of storage extension chips. The primary storage extension chip determines whether the version number of each secondary storage extension chip is same as that of the primary storage extension chip. If the version number is different from that of the primary storage extension chip, the firmware version number of the primary storage extension chip is applied to the secondary storage extension chip.
