Zusammenfassung:A bridge device includes a first physical layer circuit, a first buffer memory, a DMA controller, and a processor. The first physical layer circuit is configured to connect to an upstream device. The first buffer memory is configured to store a first data and transfer data to the upstream device via the first physical layer circuit. The DMA controller is coupled to the first buffer memory and configured to access the first data in the first buffer memory to read and/or write a storage device correspondingly. The processor is coupled to the first buffer memory and the DMA controller. When the bridge device receives a clear feature command from the upstream device, the processor is configured to reset the first buffer memory and the DMA controller to stop the data transferring between the upstream device and the bridge device.
