Abstract
Various aspects directed towards facilitating error management within a shared non-volatile memory (NVM) architecture are disclosed. Data is stored in an NVM array, and error correction vector (ECV) information associated with the NVM array is stored in a content addressable memory (CAM). A parallel query of the NVM array and the CAM is then performed, which includes a query of the NVM array that yields a readout of the NVM array, and a query of the CAM that yields an ECV corresponding to the readout of the NVM array.
