Method and data storage device using convolutional low-density parity-check coding with a long page write and a short page read granularity

摘要

In an illustrative example, an apparatus includes a controller and a memory that is configured to store a codeword of a convolutional low-density parity-check (CLDPC) code. The codeword has a first size and includes multiple portions that are independently decodable and that have a second size. The controller includes a CLDPC encoder configured to encode the codeword and a CLDPC decoder configured to decode the codeword or a portion of the codeword.
