ABSTRACT:
A memory module, such as a SIMM or DIMM, is provided which incorporates error correction circuitry. The error correction circuitry identifies and corrects errors in communications between the memory module and an external processor. A reliable data processing system is also provided, incorporating the memory module comprising the error correction circuitry with a processor. The yield of manufactured chips is increased by presorting the memory chips which make up the memory module, such that a chip with one or more defective cells may be included in a memory module so long as no other chip has defective cells at the same location.
