    摘要: A processing system includes a plurality of configuration data clients; each associated with a respective address and including a respective register, a hardware block, a non-volatile memory, and a hardware configuration circuit. A respective configuration data client receives a respective first configuration data and stores it in the respective register. The hardware block is coupled to at least one of the configuration data clients and changes operation as a function of the respective first configuration data stored in the respective registers. The non-volatile memory includes second configuration data stored as data packets including the respective first configuration data and an attribute field identifying the respective address of one of the configuration data clients. The hardware configuration circuit sequentially reads the data packets from the non-volatile memory and transmits the respective first configuration data to the respective configuration data client.

    摘要: A method is provided to access a data storage memory that stores data signals in a plurality of indexed memory locations. An access control circuit receives a memory access request signals from a processing circuit. The method includes replicating the respective memory access request signals to provide for each a respective replicated memory access request signal, accessing indexed internal memory locations to retrieve a first data signal retrieved as a function of the respective memory access request signal and a second data signal retrieved as a function of the respective replicated memory access request signal, and checking for identity the first data signal and the at least one second data signal. The access control circuit transmits to the processing circuit a data signal or an integrity error flag signal as a result of the identity check.

    摘要: A memory includes error correction circuitry that receives a data packet, outputs a correctable error flag indicating presence or absence of a correctable error in the data packet, and outputs an uncorrectable error flag indicating presence or absence of an uncorrectable error in the data packet. A response manager, operating in availability mode, generates output indicating that a correctable error was present if the correctable error flag indicates presence thereof, and generates an output indicating that an uncorrectable error was present if the uncorrectable error flag indicates presence thereof. In a coverage mode, the response manager generates an output indicating that a correctable error was potentially present but should be treated as an uncorrectable error if the correctable error flag indicates presence of the correctable error, and generates an output indicating that an uncorrectable error was present if the uncorrectable error flag indicates presence thereof.
