Abstract
Systems and methods are described to enable a memory device integrated in a memory module or system to disable one or more data bits, nibbles or bytes of the memory device. The memory device can be further configured to disable error or redundancy checking associated with the disabled data bits, nibbles or bytes, to mask errors associated with the disabled data bits, nibbles or bytes, and/or to suppress the refresh of portions of a memory array associated with the disabled data bits, nibbles or bytes.
