Abstract
Various embodiments are generally directed to an apparatus, method and other techniques to retrieve data from a non-volatile memory, and to read a memory cell of the non-volatile memory at a first set of sense conditions comprising a multiplicity of sense conditions. Embodiments also include an apparatus, method and other techniques to set a first set of bits in an encoded output, the first set of bits comprising a logical state bit to indicate a logical state of the memory cell and one or more additional bits in the encoded output to indicate accuracy of the logical state bit based upon results of the read at the first set of sense conditions, the first set of sense conditions comprising a greater number than that of the first set of bits.
