Patent

CA 2360897

A system for adding redundancy to the data path of a content addressable memory array is disclosed herein. The disclosed system employs an array of memory elements, supplemented by an array of redundant memory elements, with a switching system and a redundancy control system to ensure that defective memory elements are not accessed. Additionally a pull down unit is employed on the search lines of non-operative memory elements to ensure that inaccurate search results are not reported.

La présente divulgation porte sur un système ajoutant de la redondance au trajet de données d'une matrice mémoire à contenu adressable. Ce système fait appel à des éléments de matrice mémoire, complétés par une matrice d'éléments mémoire redondants, avec un système de commutation et un système de commande à redondance, pour assurer le non-accès aux éléments de mémoire défectueux. De plus, une unité déroulante, sur les lignes de recherche des éléments de mémoire non fonctionnels, permet d'assurer la non-communication des faux résultats de recherche.
