APPARATUSES, SYSTEMS, DEVICES, AND METHODS OF REPLACING AT LEAST PARTIALLY NON-FUNCTIONAL PORTIONS OF MEMORY

摘要

Subject matter disclosed herein relates to determining that a portion of a memory is at least partially non-functional, replacing the portion of at least partially non-functional memory; and adjusting an error detection and/or correction process responsive to determining that the portion of the memory is at least partially non-functional and/or replacing the portion of at least partially non-functional memory.

主权项

1. A method for operating a memory device, comprising:
determining if a section of memory is at least partially non-functioning; replacing the section of memory that is at least partially non-functioning with a section of memory which is allocated for storing error codes, wherein replacing the section reduces a total amount of memory available for storing error codes; and wherein, after reduction of the total amount of memory available for storing error codes, the total amount of memory available for storing error codes does not increase.
