Abstract

A method includes encoding data bits into codewords according to a first error correction encoding scheme. The method includes storing the codewords into a memory and generating a combined codeword by encoding, at the memory, the codewords according to a second error correction encoding scheme to generate parity bits of the combined codeword. The method includes, after storing the codewords into the memory, storing the parity bits of the combined codeword into the memory.
