Abstract:
A programmable Built In Self Test (pBIST) system used to test embedded memories where a plurality of memories requiring different testing conditions are incorporated in an SOC. The pBIST Read Only Memory storing the test setup data is organized to eliminate multiple instances of test setup data for similar embedded memories.
Abstract:
A programmable Built In Self Test (pBIST) system used to test embedded memories where the memories may be operating at a voltage domain different from the voltage domain of the pBIST. A plurality of buffer and synchronizing registers are used to avoid meta stable conditions caused by the time delays introduced by the voltage shifters required to bridge the various voltage domains.

Abstract:
A programmable Built In Self Test (pBIST) system used to test embedded memories where the memories under test are incorporated in a plurality of sub chips not integrated with the pBIST module. A distributed Data Logger is incorporated into each sub chip, communicating with the pBIST over serial and a compressed parallel data paths.

Abstract:
A programmable Built In Self Test (pBIST) system used to test embedded memories where the memories under test are incorporated in a plurality of sub chips not integrated with the pBIST module. Test data comparison is performed in a distributed data logging architecture to minimize the number of interconnections between the distributed data loggers and the pBIST.
