A device, integrated circuit and method for generating simulated errors are disclosed. In the disclosed device, integrated circuit and method, an original data value is read from a memory. The original data value is intercepted by the integrated circuit. The integrated circuit is operable to virtualize an error in the original data value to generate a modified data value. The integrated circuit is also operable to generate an interrupt according to the virtualization. This disclosure may be particularly useful for high-level memory validation.
