Abstract
There is provided a method for setting read thresholds to be used for reading multiple bits per cell flash memory cells, the method may include reading, by a read circuit, the flash memory cells using a set of current read thresholds to provide current read results; finding, by an error evaluation circuit, current read errors direction statistics associated with the current read results; determining multiple read threshold changes based upon the current read error direction statistics, without determining a contribution of each current read threshold to the current read error direction statistics; and altering multiple current read thresholds, by the multiple read threshold updates, to provide a set of next read thresholds.
