Die-wise residual bit error rate (RBER) estimation for memories

摘要

Examples include techniques for improving low-density parity check decoder performance for a binary asymmetric channel in a multi-die scenario. Examples include logic for execution by circuitry to decode an encoded codeword of data received from a memory having a plurality of dies, bits of the encoded codeword stored across the plurality of dies, using predetermined log-likelihood ratios (LLRs) to produce a decoded codeword, return the decoded codeword when the decoded codeword is correct, and repeat the decoding using the predetermined LLRs when the decoded codeword is not correct, up to a first number of times when the decoded codeword is not correct. When a correct decoded codeword is not produced using predetermined LLRs, further logic may be executed to estimate the LLRs for a plurality of buckets of the plurality of dies, normalize magnitudes of the estimated LLRs, decode the encoded codeword using the normalized estimated LLRs to produce a decoded codeword, return the decoded codeword when the decoded codeword is correct, and repeat the decoding using the normalized estimated LLRs when the decoded codeword is not correct, up to a second number of times when the decoded codeword is not correct.
