Abstract
A circuit includes: a single-port memory interface which includes a sole address port configured to receive a read/write (RW) address, and a multi-port memory which has multiple address ports coupled to the sole address port of the single-port memory interface, and which is configured to store a data unit and parity bits, some of the parity bits being based on the corresponding RW address; a first decoding circuit configured to generate a decoded write address from the RW address and the parity bits; and an error detecting circuit configured to determine if an address error exists based on a comparison of the decoded write address to the read address.
