SYSTEM FOR MEMORY ACCESS BANDWIDTH MANAGEMENT USING ECC

A system, and corresponding method, is described for updating or calculating ECC where the transaction volume is significantly reduced from a read-modify-write to a write, which is more efficient and reduces demand on the data access bandwidth. The invention can be implemented in any chip, system, method, or HDL code that perform protection schemes and require ECC calculation, of any kind. Embodiments of the invention enable IPs that use different protections schemes to reduce power consumption and reduce bandwidth access to more efficiently communicate or exchange information.
