Abstract
Systems and method relating generally to data processing, and more particularly to systems and methods for accessing a data set from a solid state storage device, using a data decoding circuit to apply a data decoding algorithm to the data set to yield a decoded output, where the decoded output includes at least one error, identifying at least one critical location in the data set, estimating a voltage associated with the data in the data set corresponding to the critical location, calculating soft information corresponding to the critical location based at least in part on the estimated voltage, and re-applying the data decoding algorithm to the data set guided by the soft information to yield an updated decoded output.
