Abstract

A decoding method for a rewritable non-volatile memory module is provided. The method includes reading data from a plurality of memory cells of the rewritable non-volatile memory module according to a first voltage, wherein the data includes a user data string and an error checking and correcting code set. The method also includes decoding at least part of sub data units i the user data string according to a first decoding algorithm to obtain a plurality of decoded sub data units. The method further includes restoring a value of the corrected bit to an original bit value if a corrected bit in the decoded sub data units matches a reliability condition.
