Error protection for integrated circuits |
摘要 |
A method for providing error detection and/or correction to an array of storage cells includes determining a sensitive direction and an insensitive direction of the storage cells and adding a first error control mechanism to the array of storage cells in the insensitive direction. The method also includes adding a second error control mechanism to the array of storage cells in the sensitive direction. The second error control mechanism has a higher Hamming distance than the first error control mechanism. |

1. A method for providing error detection or correction to an array of storage cells comprising:
determining a sensitive direction and an insensitive direction of the storage cells; adding a first error control mechanism to the array of storage cells in the insensitive direction; and adding a second error control mechanism to the array of storage cells in the sensitive direction, wherein the storage cells comprise a length and a width that is smaller than the length, and wherein the sensitive direction is a direction perpendicular to the length of the storage cells; wherein the second error control mechanism has a higher Hamming distance than the first error control mechanism. |
