ABSTRACT:
In a nonvolatile memory system, first raw data is obtained from stored data using a first set of reading parameters. Subsequently, the first raw data is transferred to an ECC circuit where it is decoded. While the first raw data is being transferred and decoded, second raw data is obtained from the same stored data using a second set of reading parameters.
