Tip:
The parity mode uses 1 parity bit for each byte, normally it is
even parity mode, that is, each time the memory data is updated,
parity bit will be adjusted to have even count "1" for each byte.
When next time, if memory is read with odd number of "1", the
parity error is occurred and this is called single bit error detection.
