Abstract
Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for memory controller technology including first logic to trigger, via an initial request, a hard-read and a soft-read, wherein the hard-read is to generate hard-bit information and the soft-read is to generate first soft-bit information and second soft-bit information, conduct a first error correction on the hard-bit information, and issue a subsequent request for at least the second soft-bit information if the first error correction is unsuccessful. Additionally, memory device technology may include a plurality of memory cells and second logic to conduct the hard-read and the soft-read from a memory cell in the plurality of memory cells in response to the initial request, send the hard-bit information to the controller, and withhold at least the second soft-bit information from the controller until the subsequent request is received.
