No ECC on chip, but we do have column redundancy. We are pushing the envelope in terms of SEUs, making an assumption that the right programming model and run time will be able to compensate for high soft error rates. It's a contentious point, but basically our thesis is that with 1024 cores on a single chip, cores are "free" and it "should" be possible to avoid putting down very expensive ECC circuits on every memory bank (x4096). Some of our customers don't notice all bit flips because they have things like Turbo/Viterbi ..channels aren't perfect...
