Summary:In a system on chip (SOC) device, continuity of a memory repair signature chain, which is accessible by all enabled memory systems, is provided, even when certain memory systems are gated (off) for certain SOC configurations. A mechanism for converting between compressed and uncompressed memory repair data within the repair chain is provided so that memory systems that support either uncompressed memory repair data (such as ternary content addressable memories) or compressed memory repair data can be incorporated in the SOC.
