Non-volatile Memory Error Correction Coding
The UCD9244 uses Error Correcting Code (ECC) to improve data integrity and provide high reliability storage of
Data Flash contents. ECC uses dedicated hardware to generate extra check bits for the user data as it is written
into the Flash memory. This adds an additional six bits to each 32-bit memory word stored into the Flash array.
These extra check bits, along with the hardware ECC algorithm, allow for any single bit error to be detected and
corrected when the Data Flash is read.
