Zusammenfassung:In a memory controller system, a system and method to identify memory errors which may require soft package repair or hard package repair to rows of DRAM memory. When data is written to a row of DRAM, the data is immediately and automatically read back and scanned for bit errors. If bit errors are identified, the data is corrected and written back to the same memory location. The memory location is re-read. If bit errors are again identified, the memory location is marked for soft or hard repair. If, upon rereading the memory location, additional bit errors are identified, a historical record of memory errors is reviewed to determine if bit errors have occurred previously at the same memory location. If yes, the memory location is again marked for a soft post package repair or a hard post package repair.
