Abstract
A method for transferring data into a data memory using a data protocol is presented. The data memory is an error correction code (ECC) memory or a non-error correction code memory. The data protocol has different frames. When data are written into an ECC memory, the protocol includes a data mask frame in which the data mask bits are replaced by ECC bits. The method is designed such that ECC and non-ECC DRAMs can be established with the same protocol and at least a similar architecture.
