Abstract
A decoding method for booting from a NAND Flash including a booting page storing a plurality of copies of NAND booting information and a plurality of corresponding parities, each parity generated by an predetermined error correction code (ECC) bit number. The decoding method includes reading the booting page, for obtaining a plurality of configuration data and a plurality of ECC data, and performing a voting scheme and an ECC decoding process on the plurality of configuration data and the plurality of ECC data, for obtaining the NAND booting information. Besides, an encoding method for encoding such booting information is disclosed the same.
