Abstract
Apparatuses, systems, and methods for managing storage and retrieval of metadata at a memory. A metadata column address generator, during a metadata access operation, is configured to decode a subset of less than all of the bits of the column address to determine a metadata column address and a metadata column plane address corresponding to a particular one of column planes of a memory array. A column decoder is configured to facilitate a double cycle access operation to write data to or retrieve data from the plurality of column planes based on the column address and to write metadata to or retrieve metadata from a particular column corresponding to the metadata column address of the particular one of the column planes corresponding to the column plane address.
