Abstract

A memory controller including memory address decode circuitry that detects silent data errors that occur in the memory address decode circuitry during runtime is provided. The memory address decode circuitry includes address decode circuitry to covert a received physical address to a memory address, reverse address decode circuitry to convert the memory address to a second physical address and address compare circuitry to compare the received physical address and the second physical address to detect a silent error.
