Abstract
A product code decoder to implement a method of bit correction in a codeword buffer to support error correcting code (ECC). The method loads a location entry from a correction queue, where the location entry includes a data word address and bit location information. The method performs a fast path data word address comparison to determine whether data from the data word address is being processed by a previous entry from the correction queue. The method further combines a correction of the data at the data word address specified by the location entry with a correction of a copy of the data being processed based on a previous location entry, in response to a fast path data word address comparison match, and stores the combined data in the codeword buffer.
