Abstract:
Described is a method which comprises performing a first read from a portion of a non-volatile memory, the first read to provide a first codeword; decoding the first codeword; determining whether the decoding operation failed; performing a second read from the portion of the non-volatile memory when it is determined that the decoding operation failed, the second read to provide a second codeword; and decoding the second codeword with an errors-and-erasures decoding process.
