Abstract
A memory device includes a memory array that includes a buffer data. The memory device also includes a memory controller. The memory controller includes an error correction code (ECC) component. The memory controller further receives a status command and an indication related to the quality of the data to analyze with the ECC component. Based on a status value, the memory controller utilizes one of a plurality of error correction techniques via the ECC component to correct an error (e.g., soft state, calibration, etc.).
