Abstract
A decoding method, a memory storage device and a memory control circuit unit are provided. The method includes: programming first data into a first physical unit of a rewritable non-volatile memory module; reading the first physical unit to obtain second data; obtaining a first threshold voltage distribution of a first bit-value and a second threshold voltage distribution of a second bit-value according to the first data and the second data, wherein the first bit-value and the second bit-value are different; calculating first channel reliability information corresponding to the first physical unit according to the first threshold voltage distribution and the second threshold voltage distribution; and decoding third data stored in the first physical unit according to the first channel reliability information. Therefore, decoding efficiency for the first physical unit is improved.
