Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure generally relates to a method and device for simultaneously decoding data. Rather than sending data to be decoded to a single decoder, the data can be sent to multiple, available decoders so that the data can be decode in parallel. The data decoded from the first decoder that completes decoding of the data will be delivered to the host device. All remaining decoded data that was decoded in parallel will be discarded. The decoders operating simultaneously in parallel can operate using different parameters such as different calculation precision (power levels). By utilizing multiple decoders simultaneously in parallel, the full functionality of the data storage device's decoding capabilities are utilized without increasing latency.
