Apparatuses and methods for error correction coding and data bus inversion for semiconductor memories are described. An example apparatus includes an I/O circuit configured to receive first data and first ECC data associated with the first data, a memory array, and a control circuit. The control circuit is coupled between the I/O circuit and the memory array. The control circuit is configured to execute first ECC-decoding to produce corrected first data and corrected first ECC data responsive, at least in part, to the first data and the first ECC data. The control circuit is further configured to store both the corrected first data and the corrected first ECC data into the memory array.
