A reproducing apparatus includes a storage unit including a plurality of memory elements each capable of holding an electric charge, each memory element indicating a 2-bit code which is related to each other so that the Hamming distance between adjacent codes is unity in four ranges determined by a charge amount with respect to three threshold values with the minimum or maximum value thereof as a fixed value; a reading unit that reads each 2-bit code by the charge amount which is held in each memory element using the three threshold values corresponding to each memory element; an error detector that detects whether a first bit string consisting of right bits of the 2 bit codes read or a second bit string consisting of left bits of the 2 bit codes read has an error; and a threshold changing unit that, upon detection of the error, changes a threshold value corresponding to the bit string having the error other than a fixed threshold value to secure a correct bit string.

A CRC code is generated from an original data, a BCH code is generated with respect to the original data and the CRC code, and the original data, the CRC code, and the BCH code are recorded in pages selected from different planes of a plurality of memory chips. An RS code is generated from the original data across pages, a CRC code is generated with respect to the RS code, a BCH code is generated with respect to the RS code and the CRC code, and the RS code, the CRC code, the BCH code are recorded in a memory chip different from a memory chip including the original data. When reading data, error correction is performed on the original data by using the BCH code, and then CRC is calculated. If the number of errors is the number of errors that is correctable by erasure correction using the RS code, the original data is corrected by the erasure correction. If the number of errors exceeds an erasure correction capability of the RS code, normal error correction using the RS code is performed, and further error correction using the BCH code is performed.

A memory controller controls a semiconductor storage device including nonvolatile memory cells. The controller includes a generating circuit, and a selection circuit. The generating circuit generates first data based on a second data. The selection circuit retains a cumulative value whose each digit is a cumulative result in each bit of data which is already written in the memory cells. The selection circuit selects one of the first data. A selected first data has a better average of digits in a sum of each bit of the selected first data and each digit of the cumulative value than an unselected first data. The selection circuit retains the sum concerning the selected first data as the new cumulative value.
