Abstract
An integrated circuit (IC) chip for transparent and in-service or production repair of single to multiple memory cell defects in a word during the datapath transit of the word between core memory to the interface of the IC via capturing an accurate bit from a word during a write access to a known defective memory address, and by substituting in a non-defective bit into the word during a read access from a known defective memory address. The IC includes: address matching circuit (CAM), a random access memory (RAM) of substitute memory cells containing accurate associated bit data and bit location in word of defect, and data selection circuitry (MUXs) coupled together.
