Abstract
A system and method for generating lookup tables for use in an adaptive multiple-read system for reading flash memory. Successive different attempts are made to decode previously stored data using error correction codes, the attempts differing, for example, with respect to the combination of raw data words used for each attempt, each raw data word having been obtained by reading a code word of data using a different word line voltage. When a decoding attempt succeeds, log likelihood ratios are calculated from counts of flipped bits, i.e., bits in the raw data read from the memory having a different value than the corresponding bits in the decoded data.
