    摘要: The present invention discloses a diagonal testing method for flash memories. The testing method regards the flash memory as several squares, and executes in the direction from top to bottom and from left to right. Each square is provided with a first diagonal in −45 degrees from the upper left to the lower right, and a second diagonal in +45 degrees from the lower left to the upper right. The present invention is to program the cells in the first diagonal or the second diagonal, and then read the cells except the first diagonal or the second diagonal; or, program the cells except the first diagonal or the second diagonal, and then read the cells in the first diagonal or the second diagonal so as to detect the disturb fault in the flash memories and normal memory fault models.

    摘要: A test pattern generation and comparison circuit creates test pattern stimulus signals for and evaluates response signals from logic or memory such as random access memory (RAM). It utilizes both parallel and serial interfaces to the logic/memory under test. The test pattern generation and comparison circuit further provides a method for testing logic and memory utilizing built-in self test (BIST) techniques. The method uses a programmable logic/memory commands which are translated into physical logic signals and timings for the logic or memory under test. The results of the test pattern generated and applied to the logic or memory are compared to expected results. The result of the comparison is a pass/fail designation. In addition, the comparison of the expected test results with the actual test results provides information on the exact location of the failure. Also, since the test pattern generation and comparison circuit architecture is compatible with hardware description languages such as Verilog HDL or VHDL, the test pattern generation and comparison circuit can be automatically generated with a silicon compiler.

    摘要: In the present invention a built in self test (BIST) for an embedded memory is described. The BIST can be used at higher levels of assembly and for commodity memories to perform functional and AC memory tests. A BIST controller comprising a finite state machine is used to step through a test sequence and control a sequence controller. The sequence controller provides data and timing sequences to the embedded memory to provide page mode and non-page mode tests along with a refresh test. The BIST logic is scan tested prior to performing the built in self test and accommodations for normal memory refresh is made throughout the testing. The BIST also accommodates a burn-in test where unique burn-in test sequences can be applied.

    摘要: A fiber loop formed by bending of a connection section between the first fiber and the second fiber includes a coupling region and an upper taper region as well as a down taper region arranged symmetrically on two sides of the coupling region. Then the fiber optic splitter with the fiber loop is assembled with a splitting ratio modulation mechanism. Thus the manufacturing of the fiber optic power splitter with variable splitting ratio is simplified and this favors production and applications of the device. Moreover, the splitting and modulation quality of the splitter are stable and are controlled precisely. Thus the economic benefits of the device in manufacturing, operation quality and product competitiveness are all improved.
