A translator for a digital memory system which performs single error correction and double error detection (SEC/DED) upon the stored word in converting it into a parity-encoded form and in addition detects circuit failures in the translator itself. The translator also takes a parity-encoded word, checks the parity encoding, translates the word into an SEC/DED form and writes it into memory. The translator consists of a syndrome generator, a single error corrector, a double error detector, a byte parity encoder, a byte parity checker and a circuit to implement a check on the parity-encoded form of the word which is read. The parity-check matrix used in formulating the SEC/DED encoded form of the word has the following properties:
