Abstract
A method of storing an input data of a data set into a memory storage having bit cells. The method includes determining a bit value of a characterization bit in the input data. The method also includes writing each of remaining bits in the input data into one of the bit cells either as the first state or as the second state conditioning upon whether the bit value of the characterization bit is a first value or a second value. Reading the bit cell with the first state consumes less energy than reading the bit cell with the second state or the bit cell with the first state has less retention errors than the bit cell with the second state.
