ABSTRACT:
A method comprising running an error correction code on data and storing the data and the result of the error correction code in memory, running an error correction code on the data when it is read from the memory, comparing the results of the error correction codes on the data from before and after the memory, correcting errors when the comparator determines a difference in the results of the error correction codes and lowering the operating voltage of the memory array while using the error correction.
