摘要: An apparatus and methods are disclosed herein for identifying and avoiding attempts to access a defective portion of memory. Errors associated with portions of memory, such as a cache memory, are tracked over time enabling detection of both hard and erratic errors. Based on the number of errors tracked over time for a portion of memory, it is determined if the portion of memory is defective. In response to determining portion of memory is defective, the portion of memory is disabled. The portion of memory may be flushed and moved before being disable. Additionally, disabling the portion of memory may be conditioned upon determining if it is allowable to disable the portion of memory.

摘要: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for identifying and avoiding attempts to access a defective portion of memory. Various techniques are provided for detecting a defect in a portion of memory and dynamically avoiding future attempts to access the defective portion of memory. More specifically, the techniques detect and avoid both hard and erratic errors.

摘要: In one embodiment of the present invention, a technique is provided to control leakage of a cache sub-array. Other embodiments are disclosed herein. A sleep and shut-off circuit is connected between a virtual supply terminal and a first physical supply terminal to reduce leakage from the cache sub-array when the cache sub-array is disabled in a shut-off mode. The cache sub-array is connected between the virtual supply terminal and a second physical supply terminal. An active circuit is connected to the sleep and shut-off circuit in parallel to enable the cache sub-array in a normal mode and to disable the cache sub-array in the shut-off mode.
