Patent ID: 11275515

Abstract:
A memory device configured to descramble scrambled composite data. In one approach, the scrambled composite data is provided by an XOR (exclusive OR operation) of more than one data set scrambled with non-linear scramblers. A memory device is configured to receive scramble codes generated by non-linear scramblers and perform an XOR of the scrambled composite data with the scramble codes to remove scrambling from the composite data. In one example, the scrambled data sets are data to be written to a NAND device at more than one bit per cell density (e.g., MLC, TLC, QLC, PLC, etc.). For example, the scrambled data sets may be written to the NAND device in more than one programming pass. In one example, the scrambled composite data is used to read the scrambled data sets that have been written in a first programming pass.
