Abstract:
A method for decoding a plurality of flash memory cells which are error correction-coded, the method may include: comparing physical values residing in the plurality of flash memory cells to a first set of decision thresholds thereby to provide a first item of comparison information for each of the plurality of cells; comparing physical values residing the plurality of flash memory cells to a second set of decision thresholds, thereby to provide a second item of comparison information for each of the plurality of cells, wherein neither of the first and second sets of decision thresholds is a subset of the other; and determining logical values for the plurality of flash memory cells by combining said first and second items of comparison information.
