    Abstract: An apparatus for reading a non-volatile memory includes a tracking module operable to calculate means and variances of voltage level distributions in a non-volatile memory and to calculate at least one reference voltage to be used when reading the non-volatile memory based on the means and variances, a likelihood generator operable to calculate at least one other reference voltage to be used when reading the non-volatile memory, wherein the at least one other reference voltage is based at least in part on a predetermined likelihood value constellation, and to map read patterns from the non-volatile memory to likelihood values, and a read controller operable to read the non-volatile memory using the at least one reference voltage and the at least one other reference voltage to yield the read patterns.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for integrated-interleaved Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) coding and decoding. Integrated-interleaved LDPC encoding is performed by obtaining at least a first data element and a second data element; systematically encoding the at least first data element using a submatrix H0 of a sparse parity check matrix H1 to obtain at least a first codeword; truncating the at least first data element to obtain at least a first truncated data element; systematically encoding the at least second data element and the at least first truncated data element using the sparse parity check matrix H1 to obtain a nested codeword; and generating a second codeword based at least in part on a combination of the first codeword and the nested codeword. Integrated-interleaved LDPC decoding is also provided.
