An example integrated circuit (IC) includes a network-on-chip (NoC), a master device coupled to the NoC, a memory controller coupled to the NoC configured to control a memory coupled to the IC, and an inline error-correcting code (ECC) circuit coupled to the NoC. The ECC circuit is configured to receive read and write transactions from the master device that target the memory, compute ECC data based on the read and write transactions, and provide outgoing transactions to the memory controller.
