摘要： A method to produce a description file of Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) capture-shift test data registers to be used to interpret a test result of a memory included in an integrated circuit structure that is configured for testing integrated circuit memory. A computer extracts, from a first data file, the names a memory built in self test instance, a memory built in self test port name, and a name of a first memory. The first data file controls the hierarchical and architectural arrangement of components of an integrated circuit. The first data file describes a hierarchical order of an architectural arrangement of the components, electrical pathways, and connections between the components and the electrical pathways of an integrated circuit design. The computer adds the extracted names into the description file such that the description file is configured to interpret a test result of a memory.

摘要： Aspects of the invention provide for decreasing the power supply demand during built-in self test (BIST) initializations. In one embodiment, a BIST architecture for reducing the power supply demand during BIST initializations, includes: a chain of slow BIST I/O interfaces; a chain of fast BIST I/O interfaces, each fast BIST I/O interface connected to a slow BIST I/O interface; and a BIST engine including a burst staggering latch for controlling a multiplexor within each of the slow BIST I/O interfaces, wherein the burst staggering latch, for a first burst signal, staggers the first burst signal to each of the slow BIST I/O interfaces, such that, during a first clock cycle, only a first slow BIST I/O interface receives the first burst signal.

摘要： A system and method control an operation of a built-in self-test (BIST) of memory devices of an integrated circuit. The method includes generating count values using a program counter, and providing a first burst of instructions to the memory devices. The method also includes controlling a chip enable signal associated with each of the memory devices according to the count values during a wait period following the providing the first burst of instructions until a second burst of instructions is provided to the memory devices. The chip enable signal of each of the memory devices defines clock cycles at which the memory device is operated and clock cycles at which the memory device is idle.

摘要： Each register in each built-in self-test (BIST) controller contains a BIST controller-specific start count value that is different from at least one other BIST controller-specific start count. A test controller provides a start command simultaneously to all the BIST controllers. This causes each of the BIST controllers to simultaneously begin a countdown of the BIST controller-specific start count values, using a counter. Each of the BIST controllers starts a test procedure in a corresponding BIST domain when the countdown completes (in the corresponding BIST controller). Thus, the test procedure starts at different times in at least two of the BIST domains based on the difference of the BIST controller-specific start count values in the different registers. Further, during the test procedure, each stagger controller can stagger the start of each BIST engine within the corresponding BIST domain to which the stagger controller is connected.
摘要翻译：每个内置自检（BIST）控制器中的每个寄存器包含与至少一个其他BIST控制器特定启动计数不同的BIST控制器特定的起始计数值。测试控制器同时向所有BIST控制器提供启动命令。这使得每个BIST控制器使用计数器同时开始BIST控制器特定的开始计数值的倒计时。每个BIST控制器在倒计时完成时（在相应的BIST控制器中），在对应的BIST域中启动测试过程。因此，根据不同寄存器中BIST控制器特定的开始计数值的差异，测试过程在至少两个BIST域中的不同时间开始。此外，在测试过程中，每个交错控制器可以错开交错控制器所连接的相应BIST域内的每个BIST引擎的开始。
