Error correcting memory access means and method
Solid-state memory devices featuring pluralities of lines of data storage elements are configured for read and/or write access by alternately or simultaneously accessing different lines.
1. A solid-state memory device comprising:
a first plurality of lines of data storage elements; and
a second plurality of lines of data storage elements intersecting the first plurality of lines,
wherein the first plurality of lines and the second plurality of lines form a two-dimensional array configured for at least one of read or write access by alternating between accessing different lines in the first plurality of lines and accessing different lines in the second plurality of lines.
2. The solid-state memory device of claim 1 , wherein a number of data storage elements accessed along each accessed line is less than a total number of data storage elements in the line.
3. The solid-state memory device of claim 1 , wherein alternating comprises pseudo-randomly alternating.
4. The solid-state memory device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a third plurality of lines of data storage elements intersecting the first and second pluralities of lines,
wherein the third plurality of lines, the first plurality of lines, and the second plurality of lines form a three-dimensional array configured for at least one of read or write access by alternating among different lines in the three pluralities of lines.
5. The solid-state memory device of claim 1 , wherein a portion of the array is removable.
6. A solid-state memory device comprising:
a plurality of lines of data storage elements,
wherein the solid-state memory device is configured for at least one of read or write access by alternating between accessing different lines within the plurality of lines.
7. The solid-state memory device of claim 6 , wherein a number of data storage elements accessed along each accessed line is less than a total number of data storage elements in the line.
8. The solid-state memory device of claim 6 , wherein alternating comprises pseudo-randomly alternating.
9. The solid-state memory device of claim 6 , wherein a portion of the solid-state memory device is removable.
10. A solid-state memory device comprising:
a first plurality of lines of data storage elements; and
a second plurality of lines of data storage elements intersecting the first plurality of lines,
wherein the first plurality of lines and the second plurality of lines form a two-dimensional array configured for at least one of read or write access by simultaneously accessing different lines in the first plurality of lines and the second plurality of lines.
11. The solid-state memory device of claim 10 , wherein the array is configured for at least one of read or write access by alternating between accessing different lines in the first plurality of lines and accessing different lines in the second plurality of lines.
12. The solid-state memory device of claim 10 , wherein a portion of the array is removable.
