    摘要： A regulator system includes first and second voltage sensing circuits coupled to a voltage generator control circuit. The first and second voltage sensing circuits are configured to monitor the voltage generated by the on-chip voltage generator (i.e., the on-chip supply voltage) and detect when the on-chip supply voltage reaches thresholds that are predetermined to define a desired range of the on-chip supply voltage. The voltage generator control circuit receives voltage sense signals from the voltage sense circuits and, in response, asserts or de-asserts a control signal received by the on-chip voltage generator so as to activate or de-activate the on-chip voltage generator to maintain the on-chip supply voltage within the desired range. The voltage generator control circuit introduces hysteresis in the generation of the control signal provided to the on-chip voltage generator. As a result of this hysteresis, once the on-chip voltage generator is activated, the voltage generator control circuit only de-activates the on-chip voltage generator when the on-chip supply voltage reaches the higher threshold. Conversely, once the on-chip voltage generator is de-activated, the voltage generator control circuit only activates the on-chip voltage generator when the on-chip supply voltage reaches the lower threshold.

    摘要： A circuit for a DRAM is described which, when in test mode, notifies a tester when the self-refresh operation of a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) reaches various stages of completion. By signaling the tester when, i.e., ⅛, ¼, ½, etc. of the self-refresh cycle is reached, the amount of time needed for verification of the self-refresh oscillator frequency is reduced correspondingly by a factor of 8, 4, 2 etc. The signaling of a partial test time is achieved by adding self-refresh status logic circuits which decode the high order most significant bits of the refresh address counter. The activation of the third most significant bit signals completion of ⅛th of the self-refresh cycle, the activation of the second most significant bit signals completion of ¼th of the self-refresh cycle, the activation of the most significant bit signals completion of ½ of the self-refresh cycle, and deactivation of the most significant bit signals completion of the self-refresh cycle.

    摘要： A timing scheme for multiple data clock activation with programmable delay for use in accessing a multiple CAS latency memory device. A multi-stage data propagation path is used to propagate a bit being accessed from a memory array of the device to an output line. Timing signals are generated so that in a CAS latency three mode, the timing signal that activates the next to last stage of the propagation path is triggered by an output clock signal that activates the last stage of the propagation path so that pulse from the output clock signal does not overlap with pulses of the timing signal that activates the previous stage. This timing scheme ensures the data lines feeding the last stage are not being restored while the last stage is sensing these data lines. A programmable delay circuit is used to adjust the timing of the output clock signal.

    摘要： An ABIST circuit for testing a memory array has a blanket write subcycle (WC), an RC3 subcycle, and an RC4 subcycle. The ABIST circuit includes a programmable pattern generator that provides eight programmable data bits, eight programmable read/write bits, and two programmable address frequency bits to determine the specific test patterns applied to the memory array. The address frequency bits determine how many memory cycles will be performed on each cell of the memory array. In X1 mode, only one memory cycle is performed on each cell during any given subcycle. In X2 mode, two memory cycles are performed on each cell, allowing a cell to be written, then subsequently read in the same subcycle. In X4 mode, four memory cycles are performed on each cell, and in X8 mode, all eight bits of read/write and data are used on each cell, resulting in eight memory cycles for each cell within the memory array.

    摘要： A test method and structure is provided to determine the end count of a predetermined succession or series of binary numbers wherein one number and its relation in the succession to the end count number is known. The structure includes a circuit for generating a binary digit output and a device for storing at least a portion of the said one number which preferably is the penultimate number in a sequential series. A succession of binary numbers is generated as output of the circuit. the outputted numbers are compared to the portion of the stored number. A READY signal is outputted when the stored number compares with the outputted number. On a subsequent cycle, a control signal is generated when the generated number following the READY signal corresponds to the end count number. The inventor also contemplates programmable end count numbers.
