Abstract: Dynamic redundancy buffers for use with a device are disclosed. The dynamic redundancy buffers allow a memory array of the device to be operated with high write error rate (WER). A first level redundancy buffer (e1 buffer) is couple to the memory array. The e1 buffer may store data words that have failed verification or have not been verified. The e1 buffer may transfer data words to another dynamic redundancy buffer (e2 buffer). The e1 buffer may transfer data words that have failed to write to a memory array after a predetermined number of re-write attempts. The e1 buffer may also transfer data words upon power down.

Abstract: Dynamic redundancy registers for use with a device are disclosed. The dynamic redundancy registers allow a memory bank of the device to be operated with high write error rate (WER). A first level redundancy register (e1 register) is couple to the memory bank. The e1 register may store data words that have failed verification or have not been verified. The e1 register may transfer data words to another dynamic redundancy register (e2 register). The e1 register may transfer data words that have failed to write to a memory bank after a predetermined number of re-write attempts. The e1 register may also transfer data words upon power down.

Abstract: A nonvolatile error buffer is added to STT-MRAM memory design to reduce the error correction coding ECC required to achieve reliable operation with a non-zero Write Error Rate (“WER”). The error buffer is fully associative, storing both the address and the data of memory words which have failed to write correctly within an assigned ECC error budget. The write cycle includes a verify to determine if the word has been written correctly. The read cycle includes a search of the error buffer to determine if the address is present in the buffer.
