Abstract
A memory device and method for a partial checksum calculation using a sub-matrix with flexible media coverage inside of a memory device (i.e., NAND) of a memory system. The memory device includes: a plurality of memory cells; a control circuit configured to read a codeword sequence from the plurality of memory cells, and determine a sub-matrix including multiple non-zero circulants selected from particular matrix rows of a parity check matrix used in a controller of the memory system, the multiple non-zero circulants including non-zero row circulants for each matrix row; and a partial checksum calculator configured to perform a partial checksum calculation on a syndrome sequence based on the codeword sequence and the sub-matrix.
