Abstract
Data is retrieved from a stacked memory device having a plurality of slave memory chips in response to recognizing a problem in the stacked memory device. The problem is determined to be associated with a primary driver module in the stacked memory device. In response, the primary driver module is disabled and an emergency driver module is enabled. Each of the plurality of slave memory chips are selected using a multiplexing unit to retrieve data using the emergency driver module.
