Abstract
The invention relates to an apparatus for transfer of data elements between a bus controller, such as a CPU, and a memory controller. An address translator is arranged to receive a write address from the CPU, to modify the write address and to send the modified write address to the memory controller. An ECC calculator is arranged to receive write input data associated with the write address, from the CPU, and to generate an error correction code on the basis of the write input data. A concatenator is arranged to receive the write input data from the CPU, and to receive the error correction code from the ECC calculator, and to concatenate the write input data and the error correction code to obtain write output data, and to send the write output data to the memory controller.
