Mutual-Information Optimized Quantization for LDPC Decoding of Accurately Modeled Flash Data
High-capacity NAND flash memories use multi-level cells (MLCs) to store multiple bits per cell and achieve high storage densities. Higher densities cause increased raw bit error rates (BERs), which demand powerful error correcting codes. Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are a well-known class of capacity-approaching codes in AWGN channels. However, LDPC codes traditionally use soft informa...
متن کاملLDPC Decoding with Limited-Precision Soft Information in Flash Memories
This paper investigates the application of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes to Flash memories. Multiple cell reads with distinct word-line voltages provide limited-precision soft information for the LDPC decoder. The values of the word-line voltages (also called reference voltages) are optimized by maximizing the mutual information (MI) between the input and output of the multiple-read cha...
متن کاملA concatenation scheme of LDPC codes and source codes for flash memories
Recently, low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes have been applied in flash memories to correct errors. However, as verified in this article, their performance degrades rapidly as the number of stuck cells increases. Thus, this paper presents a concatenation reliability scheme of LDPC codes and source codes, which aims to improve the performance of LDPC codes for flash memories with stuck cells....
متن کاملCombating Bit Errors From Stuck Cells in Flash Memory Using Novel Information Theory Techniques
Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes have been successfully deployed in NAND Flash memory based Solid State Drives (SSDs). As Flash memory scales, and has now advanced from planar architectures to three-dimensional ones, defects in the form of stuck cells have increased. Stuck cells are more difficult to correct using LDPC codes because they typically masquerade as reliable bits, but their per...
متن کاملLDPC-in-SSD: making advanced error correction codes work effectively in solid state drives
Conventional error correction codes (ECCs), such as the commonly used BCH code, have become increasingly inadequate for solid state drives (SSDs) as the capacity of NAND flash memory continues to increase and its reliability continues to degrade. It is highly desirable to deploy a much more powerful ECC, such as lowdensity parity-check (LDPC) code, to significantly improve the reliability of SS...
