Abstract
Embodiments of apparatuses, methods, and storage medium associated with selectively providing error correction to memory are disclosed herein. In one instance, an apparatus may include a memory controller configured to control access to a non-volatile memory having storage locations. The controller may be configured to provide a first error correction arrangement to provide a first level of error correction capability for data stored in the non-volatile memory. The memory controller may include a control/error correction block configured to provide a second error correction arrangement with a second level of error correction capability for data stored in the non-volatile memory. The second level of error correction capability enables correction of at least one bit error more than the first level. The memory controller may be configured to selectively employ the second error correction arrangement to complement the first error correction arrangement. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
