Abstract
Devices and methods for error correction are described. An exemplary error correction decoder includes a mapper configured to generate, based on a first set of read values corresponding to a first codeword, a first set of log likelihood ratio (LLR) values; a first buffer, coupled to the mapper, configured to store the first set of LLR values received from the mapper; and a node processor, coupled to the first buffer, configured to perform a first error correction decoding operation using the first set of LLR values received from the first buffer, wherein a first iteration of the first error correction decoding operation comprises refraining from updating values of one or more variable nodes, and performing a syndrome check using a parity check matrix and sign bits of the first set of LLR values stored in the first buffer.
