Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Systems and methods relating generally to solid state memory, and more particularly to systems and methods for recovering data from a solid state memory.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A data processing system, the system comprising: a soft data modification circuit operable to apply a transfer function to an original soft data corresponding to the data set accessed from a solid state memory device to yield a modified soft data set; and a data decoder circuit operable to apply one or more iterations of a data decoding algorithm to the data set accessed from the solid state memory device to yield a decoded output based at least in part on…
