Method for memory storage and access

Abstract

A method for storing data bits in memory cells, in which the data bits have at least one byte-filling bit, where at least one predefined functionality for a subset of the data bits is coded in the at least one byte-filling bit, and in which the data bits are stored in the memory cells. A method for reading data bits from memory cells, in which the data bits have at least one byte-filling bit, where at least one predefined functionality for a subset of the data bits is coded in the at least one byte-filling bit, and in which the data bits are read from the memory cells based on the coded predefined functionality. Corresponding apparatuses and memories are also disclosed.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
