Zusammenfassung: | A memory circuit includes a memory including a plurality of primary memory elements, and an error correction circuit coupled to the memory and operative to detect an error in at least one of the primary memory elements and to provide corrected data corresponding to the primary memory element. The memory circuit further includes at least one spare memory element and a control circuit operative to replace at least one of the primary memory elements with the spare memory element as a function of results generated by the error correction circuit. |
