Abstract
Memory systems may include a memory storage, a pre-processing checksum unit suitable for, during a first decoding iteration, receiving hard read data including channel input (Lch) sign values, and computing a checksum of the Lch sign values as a checksum_pre value, and a low-density parity-check (LDPC) decoder including an Lch memory and a checksum update unit, the LDPC decoder suitable for, during the first decoding iteration, storing the Lch sign values in the Lch memory of the LDPC decoder, receiving, with the checksum update unit, the checksum_pre value, and decoding a codeword in at least a second decoding iteration based at least in part on the checksum_pre value computed and received being a parity check on the hard read performed in the first decoding iteration.
