AmZ8160 Cascadable 16-Bit Error Detection and Correction Unit

The AmZ8160 Error Detection and Correction Unit (EDC) contains the logic necessary to generate 6 check bits on a 16-bit data field according to a modified Hamming Code, and to correct the data word when check bits are supplied. Operating on data read from memory, the AmZ8160 will correct any single .

AmZ8160 Cascadable 16-Bit Error Detection and Correction Unit ADVANCED DATA DISTINCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS Modified Hamming Code Detects multiple errors and corrects single bit errors in a parallel data word. Ideal for use in dynamic memory systems. Syndromes provided The AmZ8160 makes available the syndrome bits when an error occurs so the location of memory faults can be logged. Microprocessor compatible The AmZ8160 is designed to work with AmZ8000 microprocessor s.
