    摘要: An apparatus and method provide logically controlled masking of one or more maskable data bits from a plurality of data bits that are input to a dynamic logic circuit. No masking logic and attendant delay penalty is coupled in the data path that is not needed for unmasked bits from the plurality of data bits that do not need masking. A system clock has a precharge phase and an evaluate phase. A first clock buffer is coupled to a precharge switch and precharges a dynamic node during the precharge phase. A second clock buffer having substantially the same delay from system clock input to an output of the second clock buffer is gated by a derivative of a mask. The output of the second clock buffer controls one or more switches in series with switches controlled by the maskable data bits.

    摘要: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product are provided for flood mode implementation of SRAM cells that employ a continuous bitline local evaluation circuit. Flood mode testing is used to weed out marginal SRAM cells by stressing the SRAM cells. Flood mode is induced by beginning with a normal write operation. After new data values have been forced into the SRAM cells, then the write signal is chopped off. A delay block keeps the wordline signal at the high supply, and the SRAM cells go into flood mode. At this juncture marginal cells can be easily detected and later mapped to redundant cells.

    摘要: A method and enhanced Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) redundancy circuit reduce wiring and the required number of redundant elements, and a design structure on which the subject SRAM redundancy circuit resides is provided. A bitline redundancy mechanism allows the swapping of a pair of bitlines for a redundant pair of bit columns. Two of the adjacent bitlines are swapped out at a time, one even and one odd. The swap is accomplished by steering the data around the bad columns and adding redundant columns on the end that are steered in when needed.
