Application note
ECC management on SPC560x
Introduction
This document describes Error Correction Code (ECC) management and implementation
on SPC560x microcontroller family. It describes both hardware and software aspects linked
to the ECC mechanism used to protect content of memories.
It starts with an overview of ECC protection and than it jumps to more detailed hardware
ECC Fault management and how it is implemented in the microcontroller. The hardware
notification on one side is important but not enough to correctly manage memory content
faults in the application. That is why this note takes closer look on software aspects in its
second part.
