Abstract
A memory device may include memory components to store data. The memory device may also include a processor that may decode a codeword associated with the data. The processor may receive the codeword and determine whether the codeword is independently decodable using a BCH decoder. The processor may then decode the codeword using the BCH decoder when the codeword is determined to be independently decodable using the BCH decoder. Otherwise, the processor may decode the codeword using a second decoder and the BCH decoder when the codeword is not determined to be independently decodable using the BCH decoder.
