Abstract

Aspects of a storage device including a controller memory, a die memory, and a plurality of accumulators corresponding to individual DQs are provided for accelerated DQ training and error detection. A controller stores first data in the controller memory, transfers second data to the die memory over an n-bit bus, and receives n bits of the second data from the die memory based on a DQS. The controller then compares n bits of the first data with n bits of the second data to produce n bit results received into respective accumulators, and the controller simultaneously updates different accumulators in response to bit mismatches. During DQ training, if an accumulator value meets a mismatch threshold, the controller modifies a DQS-DQ timing accordingly. During error detection of a read scrambled page, if an accumulator value does not meet an entropy threshold, the controller identifies an error associated with the page.
