Functional Description
Memory Content Protection
The contents of on-chip memories can be protected against soft errors (induced e.g. by
radiation) by activating the parity mechanism or the Error Correction Code (ECC).
The parity mechanism can detect a single-bit error and prevent the software from using
incorrect data or executing incorrect instructions.
The ECC mechanism can detect and automatically correct single-bit errors. This
supports the stable operation of the system.
It is strongly recommended to activate the ECC mechanism wherever possible because
this dramatically increases the robustness of an application against such soft errors.
