Abstract: Systems and methods for performing a parity check on encoded data are disclosed. Encoded data is received. A parity check is performed based on a parity check matrix. In response to determining the first parity check is successful, a parity check number is incremented. Additional parity checks are selectively performed on subsequent portions of the array based on comparing the incremented parity check number to a threshold.
