Abstract

An apparatus includes a semiconductor fuse array, a cache memory, and a plurality of cores. The semiconductor fuse array is disposed on a die, into which is programmed the configuration data. The semiconductor fuse array has a first plurality of semiconductor fuses that is configured to store compressed cache correction data. The a cache memory is disposed on the die. The plurality of cores is disposed on the die, where each of the plurality of cores is coupled to the semiconductor fuse array and the cache memory, and is configured to access the semiconductor fuse array upon power-up/reset, to decompress the compressed cache correction data, and to distribute decompressed cached correction data to initialize the cache memory.
