Content
In one embodiment, the bias module 318 biases one or more data segments prior to sending the data segments to the ECC encoder 304. The data segment may be a grouping of bits smaller than a data packet in one embodiment. In such an embodiment, the data segment may comprise the width in bits/bytes of the write data pipeline 106. Similarly, the inverse bias module 332 may convert biased data segments back to their original source state after they are read. Biasing and inverse biasing a data segment may facilitate use of the bias module 318 and the inverse bias module 332 in a write data pipeline 106 and a read data pipeline 108 because the data segment may be sized to match the size (bus width) of data streaming through the pipelines 106,108.
