Abstract

The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for determining a refresh frequency of an ECC memory. The invention provides a method for determining the refresh frequency of an ECC (Error Correction Code) memory. The method comprises the following steps of: obtaining a function relationship between an actual soft error rate and the refresh frequency of a storage region of the ECC memory; And determining the refresh frequency of the ECC memory according to the function relationship. According to the method, the optimal design of the refresh frequency is realized by obtaining the function relationship between the actual soft error rate and the refresh frequency of the storage area of the ECC memory and determining the refresh frequency of the ECC memory according to the function relationship; The soft error rate of the ECC memory can be reduced without occupying system resources excessively, it is guaranteed that the soft error rate of the ECC memory meets the actual engineering requirement, the soft error resistance of a storage area of the ECC memory is effectively improved, and the reliability of the ECC memory and a system applying the ECC memory is enhanced. The invention also provides a device for determining the refresh frequency of the ECC memory and a computer readable storage medium.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of reliability of electronic devices, more particularly to a method and a device for determining the refresh frequency of an ECC memory. Background technique [0002] Soft errors will occur during the use of the memory. The causes of soft errors include radiation particles (α particles, neutrons, protons, heavy ions, etc.), random noise, signal integrity problems, manufacturing or design defects, and critical units. When a soft error occurs, it will cause changes in the stored data in the memory, affecting the correctness of the output data, and further affecting the system operation. [0003] ECC (error correcting code) refers to adding some check bits on the basis of the original memory data bits to detect and correct soft errors. One of the most commonly used ECC codes is the Hamming code, which can realize the function of correcting one-bit errors and detecting two-bit errors, that is, "correcting one and checkin...
