Abstract
A controller of a memory system performs a soft decoding without additional reads. The controller applies each of read voltages to cells to obtain a corresponding cell count and corresponding data, stores the obtained data, and processes the stored data. The controller determines a set of parameters, based on (i) the read voltages, (ii) cell counts corresponding to the read voltages and (iii) a non-negative regularization parameter. The controller estimates an optimal read voltage based on the set of parameters, generates log-likelihood ratio (LLR) values using the processed data and the optimal read voltage and performs soft decoding using the LLR values.
