Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for error correction. A N-bit block data to be stored in a memory device is received. The memory device does not perform any error correction code (ECC) algorithm nor provide designated error correction code storage for the N-bit block of data. Data compression is applied to the N-bit data to compress the block of data to generate a M-bit compressed block of data. A K-bit ECC is computed for the M-bit compressed data, wherein M+K is less than or equal to N. The M-bit compressed data and the K-bit ECC are stored together in the memory device.
