Abstract
A memory circuit is described comprising a plurality of memory elements, wherein each memory element is configured to store one data element of a plurality of data elements, an error correction information memory configured to store joint error correction information of the plurality of data elements, for each memory element, an error detection information memory storing error detection information for the data element stored in the memory element and a memory access circuit configured to, for an access to a memory element of the plurality of memory elements, check whether the error detection information for the data element stored in the memory element indicates an error of the data element stored in the memory element and, depending on whether the error detection information for the data element stored in the memory element indicates an error of the data element stored in the memory element, to process the error correction information for the access.
