Zusammenfassung:Examples include techniques for implementing read and write operations between a memory controller and a memory device. In an embodiment, the memory controller is configured to receive data bits to write to the memory device, to determine, using a memory controller ECC component and the data bits, a plurality of memory controller ECC check bits and one or more parity bits, to append the memory controller ECC check bits and the one or more parity bits to the data bits, and to send the data bits, the memory controller ECC check bits, and the one or more parity bits to the memory device during a write operation. In an embodiment, the memory controller is configured to receive the data bits and the memory controller ECC check bits from the memory device, to check the data bits against the memory controller ECC check bits and correct errors detected, and to return the data bits during a read operation.
