Error correction bit flipping scheme

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for operating a memory device are described. An error correction bit flipping scheme may include methods, systems, and devices for performing error correction of one or more bits (e.g., a flip bit) and for efficiently communicating error correction information. The data bits and the flip bit (e.g., an error corrected flip bit) may be directly transmitted (e.g., to a flip decision component). The flip bit may be transmitted to the flip decision component over a dedicated and/or unidirectional line that is different from one or more other lines that carry data bits (e.g., to the flip decision component).
