Abstract
The present invention relates to an error correction and selective inversion circuit (ESIC). The ESIC includes a power-on logic state (POLS) bus having a data signal and an error code correction (ECC) generator having an input coupled to the POLS bus. The ECC generator includes one or more correction pins. The ESIC also includes an inversion generator having an input attached to the POLS bus in parallel with the ECC generator. The output of the inversion generator is integrated with the output of on or more correction pins from the ECC generator so as to form an inverted data signal output. An inverted data signal is recovered by the ESIC in an inversion recovery.
