Abstract

A memory system includes a memory device comprising a content addressable memory (CAM) block storing a plurality of stored search keys. The memory system further includes a processing device that receives an input search key and identifies, from the plurality of stored search keys in the CAM block, multiple redundant copies of a stored search key that match the input search key. The processing device further determining whether a number of the multiple redundant copies of the stored search key that match the input search key satisfies a threshold criterion. Responsive to the number of the multiple redundant copies of the stored search key that match the input search key satisfying the threshold criterion, the processing device determines a match result for the input search key.
