ERROR CORRECTION IN MEMORY

摘要

Apparatus, systems, and methods for error correction in memory are described. In one embodiment, a controller comprises logic to receive a read request from a host device for data stored in a memory, retrieve the data and an associated error correction codeword, send the data to a host device, apply an error correction routine to decode the error correction codeword retrieved with the data, and in response to an error in the error correction codeword, send a location of data associated with the error to the host device. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
