    摘要: In a memory cell array, memory cells enabled to store plural-bit data are arranged in matrix. The bit-line control circuit is connected to bit-lines to control the bit-lines. A word line control circuit applies a plural-bit data read voltage as a word line voltage to the word line. The plural-bit data read voltage is larger than an upper limit of one of plural threshold voltage distributions and smaller than a lower limit of another threshold voltage distribution. Furthermore, it applies a soft-value read voltage as a word line voltage to the word line. The soft-value read voltage is smaller than an upper limit of a threshold voltage distribution and larger than a lower limit thereof. The likelihood calculation circuit calculates likelihood of the plural-bit data stores in the memory cells based on the soft-value.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, an encoding apparatus includes an input unit and a generation unit. The input unit inputs a data symbol sequence containing q(N−J) symbols (q, J, and N are integers, N>J). The generation unit generates a codeword containing qN symbols by adding a parity symbol sequence containing qJ symbols to the data symbol sequence. The codeword satisfies parity check equations of a parity check matrix of qJ rows×qN columns. A first submatrix of qJ rows×qJ columns that corresponds to the parity symbol sequence in the parity check matrix includes a second submatrix. The second submatrix includes a first identity matrix of qL rows×qL columns (L is an integer, J>L) and a first non-zero matrix of q(J−L) rows×qL columns.
