Abstract: This invention discloses a data storage chip and a data access method. The data access method is applied to a memory that includes a first area having a first range of memory address and a second area having a second range of memory address. The first range of memory address and the second range of memory address do not overlap. The method includes steps of: reading a predetermined address of the first area to obtain a control value; receiving a memory read command containing a target address; accessing the first area according to the memory read command when the target address is within the first range of memory address, and accessing the second area according to the memory read command when the target address is within the second range of memory address; and selectively sending the data read from the first area according to the control value.
