Abstract:
The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods for determining soft data for combinations of memory cells. A number of embodiments include an array of memory cells including a first and second memory cell each programmable to one of a number of program states, wherein a combination of the program states of the first and second memory cells corresponds to one of a number of data states, and a buffer and/or a controller coupled to the array and configured to determine soft data associated with the program states of the first and second memory cells and soft data associated with the data state that corresponds to the combination of the program states of the first and second memory cells based, at least in part, on the soft data associated with the program states of the first and second memory cells.
