Abstract:
An exemplary method for reading data stored in a flash memory includes: selecting an initial gate voltage combination from a plurality of predetermined gate voltage combination options; controlling a plurality of memory units in the flash memory according to the initial gate voltage combination, and reading a plurality of bit sequences; performing a codeword error correction upon the plurality of bit sequences, and determining if the codeword error correction successful; if the codeword error correction is not successful, determining an electric charge distribution parameter; determining a target gate voltage combination corresponding to the electric charge distribution parameter by using a look-up table; and controlling the plurality of memory units to read a plurality of updated bit sequences according to the target gate voltage combination.

Claim (Index 6):
The method of  claim 5 , wherein the step of referring to the time information of the flash memory to determine the target gate voltage combination comprises:\n when the flash memory has a first usage time, determining the target gate voltage combination having a first group of threshold voltage levels; and when the flash memory has a second usage time, determining the target gate voltage combination having a second group of threshold voltage levels different from the first group of threshold voltage levels.
