Abstract

A memory device includes memory arrays configured to store pages of data organized into multiple ECC words. The memory device also includes at least one input/output pad for each ECC word associated with a page, such that a first level of error correction may be performed by the memory device on each of the ECC words associated with a page and a second level of error correction is performed on the data output by each of the input/output pads during a particular period of time.
