Tessent MemoryBIST Resources
Industry-Leading Memory Built-in Self-Test
Tessent MemoryBIST includes a uniquely comprehensive automation flow that provides design rule checking, test planning, integration, and verification all at the RTL or gate level.
Advanced BIST Access Port
The advanced BAP provides a configurable interface to optimize in-system testing. It supports a low-latency protocol to configure the memory BIST controller, execute Go/NoGo tests, and monitor the pass/fail status. Test time can be significantly reduced by eliminating shift cycles to serially configure the controllers in the IJTAG environment.
Algorithm Programmability
Memory test algorithms—either custom or chosen from a library—can be hardcoded into the Tessent MemoryBIST controller, then applied to each memory through run-time control. This lets you select shorter test algorithms as the manufacturing process matures. The Tessent MemoryBIST Field Programmable option includes full run-time programmability.
Power-Aware On-Chip Self-Repair
The Tessent MemoryBIST repair option eliminates the complexities and costs associated with external repair flows. It tests and permanently repairs all defective memories in a chip using virtually no external resources. The Tessent MemoryBIST built-in self-repair (BISR) architecture uses programmable fuses (eFuses) to store memory repair info.
