Memories are most important building blocks in many digital systems. As the Integrated Circuits requirements are growing, the test circuitry must grow as well. There is a need for more efficient test techniques with low power and high speed. Many Memory Built in Self-Test techniques have been proposed to test memories. Compared with combinational and sequential circuits memory testing utilizes ...

Memory-Built In Self-Test (MBIST) is an very effectual and output enrichment for embedded RAMs. This paper presents effectual MBIST concepts of Built-In-Self Test (BIST) using Performance Accelerator Algorithm (PAA). This BIST concept very stretchable for embedded RAMs with suitable operation. PA algorithm efficiently detects probable number of fault models compare to other March test algorithm...

This paper presents the implementation of March Algorithm based Memory Built-In Self Test (MBIST) architecture for Static Random Access Memory (SRAM). A Finite State Machine (FSM) is designed to implement March – based Test algorithm. Also SRAM block and the interfacing modules are presented. There is a standard March Test Algorithm with 22N where N is the number of memory words, read/write ope...

FinFET memory is widely used in various semiconductor products due to its good read/write margin, lower power consumption, and faster driving speed. However, the forked 3D physical structure increased density of storage are very susceptible manufacturing defects, which may cause functional logic faults that different from traditional planar CMOS memories. Therefore, it critical explore an effec...

March tests have been widely used for detecting functional faults during SRAM testing. Recent development has extended the March test for diagnostic purpose to locate and identify the fault types. This paper analyses March algorithms for detection and diagnosis of Stuck-At Faults (SAFs) and Transition Faults (TFs). Unfortunately, the algorithms under studied are not able to distinguish between ...
