Abstract

An integrated circuit device. The device includes an address input(s) configured to receive address information from an address stream from an address command bus coupled to a host controller and an address output(s) configured to drive address information, and is coupled to a plurality of memory (DRAM) devices provided on a DIMM. The device has an address match table comprising a non-volatile memory device configured to store at least a revised address corresponding to a spare memory location and a bad address of at least one of the plurality of memory (DRAM) devices. The device has a control module configured to process and determine whether each address matches with a stored address in the address match table to identify the bad address and configured to replace the bad address with the revised address of the spare memory location.
