Abstract
An apparatus for storing X-bit digitized data, the register file comprising: a plurality of registers each register configured for storing X bits, wherein each register is partitioned into Y sub-registers such that each sub-register stores at least X/Y bits, and wherein at least one extra X/Y-bit sub-register is incorporated in each register to provide redundancy in the number of sub-registers for a total of at least Y+1 sub-registers per register, so that if a first sub-register in a first register includes faulty bits, data destined for storage in the first sub-register is stored in a second sub-register, in the first register, that does not include faulty bits.
