Abstract
A memory device can include a memory array, a processor coupled to the memory array, and a decoding apparatus. The decoding apparatus is configured to perform parallel decoding of codewords. Each of the codewords has a plurality of data blocks, and each data block having a number of data bits. The decoding apparatus is configured to decode, in parallel, a first codeword with one or more other codewords to determine error information associated with each codeword. For errors in a common data block shared between two codewords being decoded in parallel, the error information includes a data block identifier and associated error bit patterns. Further, the decoding apparatus is configured to update the codewords based on the error information.
