Abstract
A device that provides for redundancy of error correction encoded data includes at least one processor circuit. The at least one processor circuit is configured to perform error correction encoding on data items to generate corresponding codewords, where at least one of the data items may have a different length than at least one other of the data items and each of the codewords is the same length. The at least one processor circuit is further configured to generate a redundancy data item based at least in part on the codewords. The at least one processor circuit is further configured to write the codewords and the redundancy data item to separate blocks of at least one flash memory circuit.
