  • System and method for providing error check and correction in memory systems
    Patent number: 7328365
    Abstract: A system for providing error check and correction (ECC) is provided. The system includes an ECC interface for storing ECC codes in a first memory system and storing data in a second memory system. The ECC interface corrects errors in the data received from the second memory system utilizing the ECC codes received from the first memory system. The ECC interface asserts at least one error flag upon detecting errors in the data, and a processor monitors the at least one error flag and corrects the data stored in the first memory system.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 30, 2004
    Date of Patent: February 5, 2008
    Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Dave Karpuszka, Ron Schultz, Ken Hall

  • Memory circuit for programmable machines
    Patent number: 4281392
    Abstract: A memory circuit receives memory modules which may vary in their size and their type. The memory circuit includes a decoder circuit which receives size feedback signals from each memory module which enables it to automatically assign each module the address space it requires. If the size of a memory module is changed, the decoder circuit reassigns the address space to accommodate the new module. Type feedback signals generated by each memory module enable the memory circuit to apply the proper control signals and enable the proper supporting circuitry when the memory module is addressed.
