Abstract
A self-repairing memory system includes memory including memory elements and redundant memory elements. The memory elements include a plurality of memory cells. A memory repair module identifies non-operational memory cells and selects at least one memory element including the non-operational memory cells. A first repair sub-circuit soft repairs the memory by substituting the selected memory elements with the redundant memory elements. A second repair sub-circuit hard repairs the memory based on the substitutions.
