    Abstract: The present invention provides a memory architecture and associated serial direct access (SDA) circuit. The memory architecture includes a memory of a parallel interface and a serial direct access (SDA) circuit. The SDA circuit includes an enable pin, a serial pin and an auto-test module. The enable pin receives an enable bit, wherein the SDA circuit is selectively enabled and disabled in response to the enable bit. When the SDA circuit is enabled, the serial pin sequentially relaying a plurality of serial bits, such that each of the serial bits is associated with one of parallel pins of the parallel interface; in addition, the auto-test module can perform a built-in test of the memory associated with the serial bits.

    Abstract: A scan test of a first latch and a second latch couples a given scan value to the input of the first latch, to switch the first latch to a state corresponding to the scan value, uncouples the scan value from the first latch to latch the first latch at that state, couples the output of the first latch while latched at that state to the input of the second latch to switch the second latch to that state, and uncoupling the output of the first latch from the input of the second latch to latch the second latch at that state.

    Abstract: A memory device includes N pipe line blocks (12,22) for inputting N memory blocks (10,20) and a plurality of data outputs from each of the memory blocks to sequentially output the input data, where N is a natural number, and connects an output line of a ith pipe line block to an input line of a (i + 1)th pipe line block. such that if the device enters a direct access test mode, data sequentially output from an ith pipe line block is input to an (i + 1)th pipe line block, where 1 is a natural number smaller than N. Accordingly, data latched in N pipe line blocks are output using one data output pin, to thereby reduce the number of data output pins used for a direct access mode test to 1/N.

    Abstract: A system and method for communicating with an integrated circuit is provided that allows an integrated circuit to communicate debugging information and system bus transaction information with an external system. The system may include an interface protocol that provides flow control between the integrated circuit and the external system. The system may include a high-speed link and/or a JTAG link for communicating information. A link may be automatically selected by a debug circuit, or selected by an on-chip device or external system. The high-speed link enables real-time collection of trace information. Links may be memory-mapped, such that on-chip devices and other devices attached to the system bus may access the external system. The high-speed link may also operate at a rate which is integrally coupled with a rate of the processor or system bus. Further, the high-speed link may be adapted to change speeds in response to a change in operating speed of the system bus or processor. The JTAG interface may utilize standard JTAG components and instructions such that external devices such as debug adaptors adopting these components and instructions may be re-used for different integrated circuit types. Information transmitted over the JTAG or high-speed link may be compressed to optimize available bandwidth of the links. Also, processor control signals can be transferred through links that allow an external system to manipulate and monitor operation of the processor and its associated modules.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a signal processing apparatus having at least a boundary scan chain (27, 28) for carrying out a boundary scan test, a CPU (24) capable of being controlled by the boundary scan chain, a non-volatile memory (22) for storing an operating program of the CPU and necessary data, and an input terminal for inputting data and other control signals from the outside to the boundary scan chain, a register (29) for holding data transferred from the boundary scan chain and a memory for holding the data read from the register. During data rewriting, based on the control of the boundary scan chain, a rewriting program is input via the input terminal from a writing device to the boundary scan chain and then stored in the memory through the register, the CPU inputs rewriting data to write it into the non-volatile memory based on the control of the rewriting program stored in the memory.
