METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SOFT DATA GENERATION FOR MEMORY DEVICES USING DECODER PERFORMANCE FEEDBACK

摘要

Methods and apparatus for soft data generation for memory devices using decoder performance feedback. At least one soft data value is generated in a memory device, by obtaining performance feedback from a decoder; obtaining an error statistic based on the performance feedback; and generating the at least one soft data value based on the obtained error statistic. The performance feedback comprises one or more of decoded bits, a number of erroneous bits based on data decoded by the decoder and a number of unsatisfied parity checks.
