Abstract
A method for determining an optimal read voltage for reading a set of memory cells is described. Read voltages having different amplitudes are provided to each of the memory cells. An output of each of the memory cells is read in response to each of the read voltages. An approximate amplitude of a threshold voltage of each of the memory cells is determined based on the outputs of the respective memory cells in response to the read voltages to generate codewords. Each of the codewords can be associated with a respective one of the read voltages. A decoding process is implemented on each of the codewords to determine a value of each of the codewords. The optimal read voltage is determined based on one of the codewords associated with a respective one or more of the read voltages having a lowest value of the syndrome weight.
