Abstract
A memory device for detecting and correcting errors in stored data includes a circuit for generating an error-detection/correction code with respect to data to be stored, a memory cell array in which the data and the error-detection/correction code are stored, an error-detection/correction circuit for detecting and corrrecting errors in the data by using the error-detection/correction code when the data is read out of the memory cell array, and a function test circuit selectively and directly connected to the error-detection/correction circuit for testing the error-detection/correction circuit.
