Abstract
A memory device includes an error code generator, one or more first pins coupled to an external data bus, and one or more second pins coupled to an external system interface. The one or more first pins output data chunks to the data bus during a period of memory operation; and the error code generator is configured to transmit a status code via the one or more second pins during the period of memory operation. The status code indicates at least one of an error was detected, an error was detected and corrected, or an error was detected and not corrected.
