Abstract:
An apparatus includes one or more error-correction decoders, a buffer, at least one direct memory access (DMA) engine, and at least one processor. The buffer may be configured to store data to be decoded by the one or more error-correction decoders. The at least one DMA engine may couple the buffer and the one or more error-correction decoders. The at least one processor may be enabled to send messages to the at least one DMA engine. The messages may be configured to deliver DMA control information and corresponding datapath control information. Data may be read from the buffer based upon the DMA control information and delivered to the one or more error-correction decoders along with the corresponding datapath control information. The one or more error-correction decoders may be enabled to decode the data read from the buffer according to the corresponding datapath control information.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes one or more error-correction decoders, a buffer, and at least one processor. The buffer may be configured to store data to be decoded by the one or more error-correction decoders. The at least one processor is generally enabled to send messages to the one or more error-correction decoders. The messages may contain datapath control information corresponding to data in the buffer to be decoded by the one or more error-correction decoders. The one or more error-correction decoders are generally enabled to decode the data read from the buffer according to the corresponding datapath control information.
Abstract:
A low density parity check decoder includes a variable node processor operable to generate variable node to check node messages and to calculate perceived values based on check node to variable node messages, a check node processor operable to generate the check node to variable node message vectors and to calculate checksums based on the variable node to check node messages, and a convergence detector and bit map generator operable to convergence of the perceived values and to generate at least one bit map that identifies variable nodes that are connected to check nodes with unsatisfied parity checks.
