AIM
To detect for faults in embedded read only memories.
INTRODUCTION
Different types of faults occur like stuck at faults,
BIST(cont.)
BIST is a design for testability technique in which
response of the CUT is to be compared with the reference response i.e. the golden response.
PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION
The different modules that are implemented are: Bist Controller ROM Array Row Selector Column Selector Combined Row and Column Selector Signature Register
BIST CONTROLLER
BIST controller has a control on both test pattern
the decoder.
DETERMINISTIC PARTITIONING
The deterministic partitioning helps rows and
ROW SELECTIONS
ROW SELECTIONS(CONT.)
The row selector comprises of the upcounters for
partitions,groups,the LFSR and the offset counter. The circuit implements the following formula
r =Sk+(p(gk)),k=0,1,...,P1.
For 16 rows forming 4 partitions( n =2) ,and with group 3 and partition 2,data is compacted from rows 2,5,11,12
COLUMN SELECTIONS
COLUMN SELECTIONS(CONT.)
There is a need for two 1 out 4 column decoders and
COLUMN SELECTIONS(CONT.)
SIGNATURE REGISTER
SIGNATURE REGISTER(CONT.)
Signature register is used to collect the test responses
arriving from selected memory cells It compares the responses with that of golden response and failing rows and/or columns are detected The register can be reset at the beginning of every run over address space and the content of the register is downloaded once per run .
a)single stuck at column and single stuck at row failure b)Error free response c)Erroneous response.
CONCLUSIONS
The presented approach allows uninterrupted
results in parallel leading to shorter test time without compromising quality of diagnosis and it clearly conforms high accuracy of diagnosis .
FUTURE SCOPE
This method can be developed further to achieve
