Abstract
An integrated circuit including a first decoder, a second decoder, a sensor, and a controller. The first decoder generates first data by performing a first number of decoding iterations and generates second data after performing all of the first number of decoding iterations. The second decoder performs a second number of decoding iterations and generates soft information based on input samples and/or the second data. Each of the second number of decoding iterations is performed after all of the first number of decoding iterations. The first decoder generates the first data based on the soft information and/or the first data from one of the first number of decoding iterations. The sensor senses a temperature of the integrated circuit. The controller controls, based on the temperature of the integrated circuit, at least one of the first number of decoding iterations or the second number of decoding iterations.
