System and method for facilitating differentiated error correction in high-density flash devices

Abstract:

Embodiments described herein provide a system for facilitating modulation-assisted error correction. The system can include a plurality of flash memory cells, an organization module, a mapping module, and a modulation module. During operation, the organization module groups bits of a cluster of cells in the plurality of flash memory cells into a first group and a second group. A respective of the first and second groups includes bits from a respective cell of the cluster of cells. The mapping module generates a modulation map that maps a subset of bits indicated by the first group in such a way that the subset of bits is repeated in a respective domain of bits indicated by the second group. The modulation module then programs user data bits in the cluster of cells based on the modulation map.
