AREA-EFFICIENT DYNAMIC MEMORY REDUNDANCY SCHEME WITH PRIORITY DECODING

摘要

A method for a memory subsystem redundancy with priority decoding is described. The method includes dynamically repairing a local input/output (IO) unit of a first memory subsystem bank based on a current redundancy fuse input pattern of the first memory subsystem bank. The method also includes concurrently generating a redundancy shift signal in each global IO based on the current redundancy fuse input pattern to shift the repaired local IO unit and lower order local IO units of the first memory subsystem bank relative to the repaired local IO unit.
