Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
In this work, the model introduced by Gabrys is extended to account for the presence of unreliable memory cells. Leveraging data analysis on errors taking place in a TLC Flash device, we show that memory cells can be broadly categorized into reliable and unreliable cells, where the latter are much more likely to be in error. Our approach programs unreliable cells only in a limited capacity. In particular, we suggest a coding scheme, using generalized tensor product codes, that programs the unreliable cells only at certain voltage levels that are less likely to result in errors. We present simulation results illustrating an improvement of up to a half order of magnitude in page error rates compared to existing codes.
