Abstract
A decoding method, a memory storage device, a memory controlling circuit unit and a decoding circuit for low density parity code (LDPC) are provided. The decoding method includes: reading a data bit of each memory cell; performing a parity check procedure on the data bits to generate a plurality of checks; in an iterative decoding of LDPC, obtaining a reliability message of each data bit according to the checks and deciding an index of an error bit from the data bits according to the reliability messages; determining whether the index of the error bit and the checks comply with a parity criteria; and if the index of the error bit and the checks comply with the parity criteria, stopping the iterative decoding and outputting the index of the error bit. Accordingly, a decoding latency is decreased.
