Abstract

A method for detecting a reading error of a datum in memory. A binary word which is representative of the datum and an error correcting or detecting code is read by: reading a first part of the binary word stored at a first address in a first memory circuit; and reading a second part of the binary word stored at a second address in a second memory circuit. The first and second parts read from the first and second memory circuits, respectively, are concatenated to form a read binary word. The datum is then obtained by removing the error correcting or detecting code from the read binary word. A new error correcting or detecting code is calculated from the obtained datum and compared to the removed error correcting or detecting code to detect error in the obtained datum.
