Consequently, the number of combinations that may need to be attempted changes from 17,644 where x=2 to 32 and from 1,036,288 where x=3 to 256, because the configuration module 352 uses the known bias to determine which channels have read voltage thresholds that need adjusting and the direction of the adjustment. However, each of these combinations may not need to be tried because as the adjustments are iteratively made, the known bias of the data continues to indicate which direction to make each subsequent adjustment, potentially cutting the search space at least in half with each iteration. Various search algorithms can be used to quickly identify a suitable adjusted read voltage threshold. (i.e. a binary search).
