Abstract

See full text

Technologies are generally described for systems, devices and methods effective to reduce power consumption in flash memory. In some examples, a bit error rate estimator module may estimate two or more bit error rates. The two or more bit error rates may be associated with application of respective voltages to read from a memory. A voltage setup module may be configured to be in communication with the bit error rate estimator module. The voltage setup module may be configured to select a voltage to read from the memory. The voltage may be selected based on the two or more bit error rates and based on an error correction level. The error correction level may be a tolerance level available to correct read errors from the memory.
