Abstract
A memory control apparatus includes a reading unit, an inserting unit, an identifying unit, a determining unit, and an outputting unit. The reading unit reads data from the memory. The inserting unit inserts a dummy error at an insertion position in the data thereby obtaining error data. The identifying unit identifies an error position at which an error has occurred in the error data. The determining unit determines whether the insertion position matches the error position. When the insertion position matches the error position, the outputting unit outputs corrected data obtained by correcting an error at the error position.
Claims11
A memory control apparatus that controls input and output of data in a memory, the memory control apparatus comprising:
- a reading unit that reads data from the memory;
- an inserting unit that inserts a dummy error at an insertion position in the data thereby obtaining error data;
- an identifying unit that identifies an error position at which an error has occurred in the error data;
- a determining unit that determines whether the insertion position matches the error position;
- and
- an outputting unit that, when the insertion position matches the error position, outputs corrected data that is obtained by correcting an error at the error position in the error data.
A memory control method that controls input and output of data in a memory, the memory control method comprising:
- reading data from the memory;
- inserting a dummy error at an insertion position in the data thereby obtaining error data;
- identifying an error position at which an error has occurred in the error data;
- determining whether the insertion position matches the error position;
- and
- outputting, when the insertion position matches the error position, corrected data that is obtained by correcting an error at the error position in the error data.
