EXCHANGING ECC METADATA BETWEEN MEMORY AND HOST SYSTEM |
摘要 |
Exposing internal error correction bits from a memory device for use as metadata bits by an external memory controller. In a first mode the memory device applies internal error correction bits for internal error correction at the memory device. In a second mode the memory device exposes the internal error correction bits to the memory controller to allow the memory controller to use the data. |

1. A method for interfacing a memory device and a memory controller, comprising:
determining if a memory device is in a first mode or a second mode; and in the first mode, applying internal error correction bits only internally at the memory device; and in the second mode, exposing the internal error correction bits to an external memory controller as metadata bits for use by the external memory controller. |
