Abstract
A data storage device includes a memory die and a controller coupled to the memory die. The memory die includes a resistive memory and read/write circuitry configured to determine a first hard bit value and a second hard bit value of a storage element of the resistive memory. The first hard bit value and the second hard bit value are determined using opposite polarity read voltages. The controller is configured to perform error correction with respect to data read from the resistive memory.
