Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for providing data protection for data stored within a Random Access Memory element. The method comprises receiving data to be written to memory, dividing the received data into a plurality of data sections, applying error correction codes to the data sections to form codeword sections, interleaving the codeword sections to form an interleaved data codeword, and writing within a single clock cycle the interleaved data codeword to memory.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for providing data protection for data stored within a Random Access Memory element, the method comprising: receiving data to be written to memory; dividing the received data into a plurality of n data sections, wherein each one of the n data sections comprises at least one data bit; applying an error correction code to each one of the n data sections to form a respective codeword section, wherein each codeword section comprises the at lea…
