Abstract
Multi-level cell NAND flash is a flash memory technology using multiple levels per cell to allow more bits to be stored. Currently, most multi-level cell NAND stores 2 bits of information per cell. This reduces the amount of margin separating the states and results in the possibility of more errors. The most error cause is coupling noise. Thus, in this paper, we studied coupling noise cancellation scheme for reduction memory on the 16-level cell NAND flash memory channel. Also, we compared the performance threshold detection and proposed scheme.
