ITERATIVE ERROR CORRECTION WITH ADJUSTABLE PARAMETERS AFTER A THRESHOLD NUMBER OF ITERATIONS

摘要

A processing device in a memory system reads a sense word from a memory device and executes a plurality of parity check equations on corresponding subsets of the sense word to determine a plurality of parity check equation results. The processing device determines a syndrome for the sense word using the plurality of parity check equation results, determines whether the syndrome for the sense word satisfies a codeword criterion, and responsive to the syndrome for the sense word not satisfying the codeword criterion, performs an iterative low density parity check (LDPC) correction process, wherein at least one criterion of the iterative LDPC correction process is adjusted after a threshold number of iterations is performed.
