摘要： A method and apparatus for initializing an integrated circuit using compressed data from a remote fusebox allows a reduction in the number of fuses required to repair or customize an integrated circuit and allows fuses to be grouped outside of the macros repaired by the fuses. The remote location of fuses allows flexibility in the placement of macros having redundant repair capability, as well as a preferable grouping of fuses for both programming convenience and circuit layout facilitation. The fuses are arranged in rows and columns and represent control words and run-length compressed data to provide a greater quantity of repair points per fuse. The data can be loaded serially into shift registers and shifted to the macro locations to control the selection of redundant circuits to repair integrated circuits having defects or to customize logic.

摘要： A method and system for determining minimum post production test time on an integrated circuit device to achieve optimal reliability of that device utilizing defect counts. The number of defective cells or active elements with defective cells (DEFECTS) on the integrated circuit device are counted and this count serves as a basis for determining the minimum test time. A higher number of DEFECTS results in longer post production testing in order to achieve optimum reliability of the integrated circuit device. The number of DEFECTS can be counted on a device internal to the integrated circuit device and made available to determine the minimum required test time. The number of DEFECTS can also be obtained external to the integrated circuit device by intercepting information routed to another device. Information provided internally and externally can also reveal the physical location of DEFECTS to further refine the minimum required test time.

摘要： A method for verifying the accuracy of memory testing software is disclosed. A built-in self test (BIST) fail control function is utilized to generate multiple simulated memory fails at various predetermined locations within a memory array of a memory device. The memory array is then tested by a memory tester. Afterwards, a bit fail map is generated by the logical-to-physical mapping software based on all the memory fails indicated by the memory tester. The bit fail map provides all the fail memory locations derived by the logical-to-physical mapping software. The fail memory locations derived by the logical-to-physical mapping software are then compared to the predetermined memory locations to verify the accuracy of the logical-to-physical mapping software.
