APPARATUSES AND METHODS FOR MAPPING MEMORY ADDRESSES TO REDUNDANT MEMORY

摘要

Apparatuses and methods related to redundant memory and mapping memory addresses to redundant memory are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a plurality of memory sections and a plurality of redundant memory sections. A programmable element block includes a plurality of programmable element sets. A programmable element set is configured to be programmed with location information for a redundant memory section of the plurality of redundant memory sections and further programmed with a respective memory address to be mapped to a redundant memory element of the redundant memory section located by the location information. A programmable element block logic is configured to associate a memory address programmed in a programmable element set with a redundant memory element of the redundant memory section located by the respective location information programmed in the programmable element set.
