Abstract
A method, apparatus, and system for level dependent error correction code protection in multi-level non-volatile memory. A write command to write data to a non-volatile memory array may be received. At least one multi-level page of multi-level storage cells may be determined for the write data. A coding rate for the write data of the at least one multi-level page may be determined based on an attribute of the at least one multi-level page. An ECC codeword may be generated that satisfies the coding rate and includes the write data. The ECC codeword may then be stored on the at least one multi-level page.
