Abstract

In the described examples, a memory controller includes a read-modify-write logic module that receives a partial write data request for partial write data in error-correcting code (ECC) memory and combines the partial write data in the partial write data request with read data provided from the ECC memory to form combined data prior to correcting the read data. The memory controller also includes a write control module that controls the writing of the combined data to the ECC memory.
