Abstract
A dual in-line memory module (DIMM) supporting storage of a data indicator(s) in an error correcting code (ECC) storage unit dedicated to storing an ECC. The DIMM is configured to provide a burst ECC storage unit striped in a burst data storage unit. The DIMM is configured to stripe a received burst data word across a burst data word storage unit at a write data address for a write operation. The DIMM is also configured to stripe a received burst ECC word for the burst data word across the burst ECC storage unit at the write data address in fewer bits than a number of data bit cells in the burst ECC storage unit. In this manner, the DIMM can store at least one data indicator for a burst data word in an extra, leftover bit(s) in the burst ECC storage unit.
