Abstract

An electronic device includes memory banks and repair circuitry configured to remap data from the memory banks to repair memory elements of the memory banks when a failure occurs. The repair circuitry includes a logic gate configured to receive an output from a memory bank of the memory banks, receive a failure signal indicating whether a corresponding memory element has failed, and transmit the output with a value of the output is based at least in part on the failure signal. The repair circuitry also includes error correction circuitry configured to receive the output via the logic gate and a multiplexer configured to receive the output from the memory bank, receive a repair value, and selectively output the output or the repair value from the repair circuitry as an output of the repair circuitry.
