Description

LDPC code decoding method based on threshold voltage drift sensing
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of solid-state disk storage, and particularly relates to a decoding method of an LDPC code with threshold voltage drift perception.
Background
Three-dimensional stacked flash memories have a high storage density characteristic, and thus are widely used as storage devices in solid state disks, smart phones, and computer systems. However, high storage density reduces data storage reliability. The LDPC code (Low-Density Parity-Check code) has strong error correction capability and is applied to a three-dimensional stacked flash memory to ensure the reliability of data storage. The LDPC is a soft-decision error correcting code, multiple levels are needed to obtain soft-decision information before decoding, and the high-precision soft-decision information can improve decoding performance and reduce decoding delay. In the three-dimensional stacked flash memory, in order to obtain high-precision soft decision information, the threshold voltage range of the memory cell needs to be accurately obtained.
As shown in fig. 1, after channel disturbances such as a Program/Erase (Program/Erase, abbreviated as P/E) and a storage disturbance, a threshold voltage of a memory cell in a flash memory may drift, so that an actual threshold voltage distribution of the memory cell may deviate from an ideal distribution. In the three-dimensional stacked flash memory, the drift phenomenon is very obvious, and the existing flash memory decoding method does not consider the drift characteristic of the threshold voltage of the storage unit in the three-dimensional stacked flash memory when the soft decision information is acquired, so that the accuracy of the acquired soft decision information is low, the decoding performance is low, the decoding delay is high, and the reading overhead of the three-dimensional stacked flash memory is increased.

The threshold voltage distribution of the storage unit can drift to different degrees along with different drift parameters (erasing times and data storage time).
Further, the method for establishing the corresponding relationship between the threshold voltage distribution and the drift parameter of the memory cell includes:
(S1) selecting a plurality of flash memory blocks from the three-dimensional stacked flash memory as a sample set, and dividing the total range of the threshold voltage of the memory cell into M subintervals;

(S7) performing (S2) - (S6) after performing the erasing operation on each flash block in the sample set according to the designated erasing times;
and (S8) repeating the step (S7) for multiple times to obtain multiple different drift parameters and corresponding threshold voltage distributions, and fitting to obtain the corresponding relation between the threshold voltage distributions and the drift parameters of the memory cells.
According to the invention, through a sampling and fitting method, the corresponding relation between the threshold voltage distribution of the storage unit and the drift parameter can be accurately obtained, so that accurate soft decision information can be obtained according to the drift characteristics of the threshold voltage distribution of the storage unit in the decoding process; writing efficiency can be improved and interference between flash memory pages can be reduced by sequentially writing data.
Further preferably, in step (S1), the division of the subintervals coincides with the division of the read voltage steps in the ReadOffset operation supported by the flash memory chip.
As a further preference, the flash blocks of the sample set are evenly distributed in different flash channels;

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention. In addition, the technical features involved in the embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
Before explaining the technical solution of the present invention in detail, the related basic concepts will be briefly introduced. In a three-dimensional stacked flash memory, a flash memory cell stores bit data in a manner of storing charges, and as the amount of charges stored is different, the threshold voltage of the memory cell will be in different voltage ranges, and correspondingly, the memory cell will be in different states for storing different bit data. According to the number of bits stored in the memory cell, the threshold voltage of the memory cell is divided into a plurality of voltage ranges which are not overlapped with each other, and the voltage ranges represent different states respectively. For example, an SLC (single Level cell) memory cell is used to store a bit of data, and its threshold voltage is divided into two voltage ranges that do not overlap with each other, and accordingly, the SLC memory cell has two states; an MLC (multi Level cell) memory cell is used to store two bits of data, and its threshold voltage is divided into four non-overlapping voltage ranges, and accordingly, the MLC memory cell has four states. The peripheral circuit needs to determine the state of the memory cell by means of a series of standard read reference voltages, and further determine the bit data value stored in the memory cell, and the specific number of the required standard read reference voltages is determined by the number of bits stored in the memory cell. In SLC memory cells, only one standard read reference voltage is needed; in an MLC memory cell, 3 standard read reference voltages are required.
For a given state, the point on the threshold voltage distribution curve where the threshold voltage is minimum and the point where the threshold voltage is maximum are the left and right tail end points of the corresponding state, respectively. As shown by the solid line in FIG. 1, when no shift occurs, the threshold voltage distribution curves of the adjacent states do not intersect, and the state with the smaller threshold voltage of the two states is considered as state P1 and thresholdThe state with larger value voltage is the state P2, the threshold voltage at the right tail end point of the state P1 is v1The threshold voltage at the left tail end point of state P2 is v2The standard read reference voltage between the two states is vrefThen v is satisfied1<vref<v2(ii) a As shown by the dotted line in fig. 1, after the drift occurs, the threshold voltage distribution curves of the adjacent states intersect; in the present invention, after the threshold voltage distribution shifts, the voltage range generated by the intersection of the threshold voltage distribution curves of adjacent states is called a drift region, specifically, the lower boundary point of the drift region is the standard read reference voltage vrefThe upper boundary point is the voltage v at the right tail end point of the state P11Or the upper limit point of the drift region is the standard read reference voltage vrefThe lower boundary point is the voltage v at the left tail end point of the state P22
As can be seen from fig. 1, when the threshold voltage of the memory cell falls in the drift region, the state of the memory cell cannot be directly determined; when the threshold voltage of the memory cell falls in the non-drift region, the state of the memory cell can be directly determined according to the range of the threshold voltage with high probability.
In order to solve the problem that the decoding performance is low and the decoding delay is high due to the fact that the existing LDPC code decoding method cannot acquire accurate soft decision information when the threshold voltage distribution of a storage unit drifts, the LDPC code decoding method with threshold voltage drift sensing provided by the invention comprises the following steps as shown in FIG. 2:
