Abstract: In order to test memories with the word width in a transparent way, one can use the same transparent BIST module that has been proposed in a roving manner. The proposed schemes cannot utilize to test memories having different word widths. Transparent word oriented March tests are directly obtained by repeatedly executing the corresponding bit oriented March test on each bit of word. Transparent BIST schemes for RAM modules assure the preservation of the memory contents during periodic testing. Symmetric Transparent Built-in Self Test schemes skip the signature prediction phase required in traditional transparent BIST achieving considerable reduction in test time. Previous works on symmetric transparent BIST schemes require that a separate BIST module is utilized for each RAM under test. This approach, given the large number of memories available in current chips, increases the hardware overhead of the BIST circuitry. The proposed schemes utilize an ALU in order to generate the test patterns and compress the responses of the memory module; the word width of the memory can be smaller than the number of stages of the ALU. Hence, multiple non-identical memories can be tested in a pipeline way.so in this the ALU is working as the BIST. In this system RAMs are of different size are used and each has different width structure. Finally analyze the fault word by using RAM structure in online condition. Keywords: Built-In Self-Test (BIST), MBIST, ALU, And RAM. I. INTRODUCTION Advances of semiconductor memory technologies have become more complex and number of memory cells per chip increasing rapidly. Increasing percentage of chip area devoted to embedded memories. Such embedded memories used internally by the device, a situation where in self testing may be the best solution. DFT is a technique, which facilitates a design to become testable after production. Built In-Self-Test for memories has become standard industrial one, since it has taken major part of the die area up to 94% by RAM modules are tested both after manufacturing and periodically in the field. During testing, a number of tests are applied to check that the RAM operates normally. BIST is a technique of designing additional hardware and software features into integrates circuits to allow them to perform self testing i.e: testing of their own circuit there by reducing dependence on an external automated test equipment(ate).it is build self testing capacity into the circuit under test. BIST is a Design-for-Testability (DFT) technique, because it makes the electrical testing of a chip easier, faster, more efficient, and less costly. The concept of BIST is applicable to just about any kind of circuit, so its implementation can vary as widely as the product diversity that it caters to. As an example, a common BIST approach for DRAM's includes the incorporation onto the chip of additional circuits for pattern generation, timing, mode selection, and go-/no-go diagnostic tests. BIST techniques are LBIST, IBIST, MBIST, and AMBIST. In this MBIST is used for testing. MBIST, as its name implies, is used specifically for testing memories. It typically consists of test circuits that apply, read, and compare test patterns designed to expose defects in the memory device. There now exists a variety of industry-standard MBIST algorithms, such as the "March" algorithm, the checkerboard algorithm, and the varied pattern background algorithm. A March test consists of number of March elements that perform a preset sequence of read and or write operation for every word. Conventional March algorithms [6]-[8], starts with the beginning of write all zero phase where all RAM cells are initialized to 0 Testing of RAM modules is performed both rights after manufacturing and periodically in the field. During manufacturing testing, various kinds of tests are applied in order to ensure that the RAM operates normally. A March test comprises a series of March elements that perform a predetermined sequence of operations (read and /or write) in every word. Traditional march algorithm start with an initial writes allzero phase, where all the RAM cells reset to 0 in order to ensure that the final signature in the output compactor is known. The main drivers for the widespread development of BIST techniques are the fast-rising costs of ATE testing and the growing complexity of integrated circuits. It is now common to see complex devices that have functionally diverse blocks built on different technologies inside them. Such complex devices require high-end mixed-signal testers that possess special digital and analog testing capabilities SEMAR GROUPS TECHNICAL SOCIETY. All rights reserved.
2 BIST can be used to perform these special tests with additional on-chip test circuits, eliminating the need to acquire such high-end testers. Fig.1. C-march algorithm, (a) original version, (b) transparent version, (c) symmetric transparent version. Soft errors can be deal during operation of the system, adding standard online checking based on error detecting Codes. For detection the certain types of error can be vouching. But error detection can be done only during read operations, the time between the occurrence of error and its detection, referred to as error detection latency, it may be very high. For example in the application of telecommunication switching, it is unable to detect a large amount of data, when the data are needed. In opposition, errors should be detected easily, before the data are needed by the system. In addition, errors error detection increases the number of check bits which in turn increases the hardware overhead. In order to overcome the problems in transparent BIST, signature prediction phase is used and write all zero phase is neglected, during which signature is captured and stored. The final signature is compared against the captured one to check whether the fault has present in the RAM word or not. The major Problems encountered in transparent BIST are test pattern generator and response compactor. To verify the correct operation of memory it is necessary to apply the single signal to the inputs of data bus and two gates (one AND and one OR). The need to capture the contents of the data in memory at the beginning of transparent BIST test imposes the need to employ Multiple Input Shift Registers (MISR) structures, increasing the hardware overhead. In Symmetric Transparent BIST, the signature prediction phase is skipped and the March series is modified in such a way that the final signature is equal to all zero state, irrespective of the RAM initial contents. For bit organized RAMs Single Input Shift Registers (SISR) was used whose polynomial switches between a primitive polynomial and it s reciprocal for different march elements of March series Multiple Input Shift Registers (MISR) is used in word organized RAMs whose characteristics polynomials is modified in a fashion that can serve as response compactor. This scheme requires the modification of existing registers in order to serve as response evaluators and requires control logic to switches between different polynomials during the March series. The advantage of using RAM modules in the circuit has lower hardware overhead and eliminates the need of multiplexers in the circuit path. In Symmetric Transparent RAM BIST, the compaction and data generation module was MUNEERA JAMAL, K. PADMAJA DEVI implemented by using an ALU. The output of RAM is given directly to the inputs of ALU or by using processor instructions. This scheme imposes lower hardware overhead and less complexity than previously proposed scheme. A Symmetric Transparent Online BIST for Arrays of Word organized RAMs is proposed. This scheme uses an ALU to generate test patterns and compress the response of memory modules, the word width of memory can be smaller than number of stages in ALU. Hence multiple non identical memories are tested in a pipeline fashion and the area cost is reduced. II. BIST (BUILT-IN SELF TEST) A. Why BIST The main drivers for the widespread development of BIST techniques are the fast-rising costs of ATE testing and the growing complexity of integrated circuits. It is now common to see complex devices that have functionally diverse blocks built on different technologies inside them. Such complex devices require high-end mixed-signal testers that possess special digital and analog testing capabilities. BIST can be used to perform these special tests with additional on-chip test circuits, eliminating the need to acquire such high-end testers. 1. DFT means Design-for-Testability: It is a methodology of IC design which simplifies further IC testing (like scanpath insertion etc.) BIST is a Design-for-Testability (DFT) technique, because it makes the electrical testing of a chip easier, faster, more efficient, and less costly. The concept of BIST is applicable to just about any kind of circuit, so its implementation can vary as widely as the product diversity that it caters to. 2. BIST is a Design-for-Testability (DFT): Technique of designing additional hardware and software features into integrated circuits to allow them to perform self-testing, i.e., testing of their own operation (functionally, parametrically, or both) using their own circuits, thereby reducing dependence on an external automated test equipment (ATE). It makes the electrical testing of a chip easier, faster, more efficient, and less costly. The concept of BIST is applicable to just about any kind of circuit, so its implementation can vary as widely as the product diversity that it caters to. As an example, a common BIST approach for DRAM's includes the incorporation onto the chip of additional circuits for pattern generation, timing, mode selection, and go-/no-go diagnostic tests. BIST is also the solution to the testing of critical circuits that have no direct connections to external pins, such as embedded memories used internally by the devices. In the near future, even the most advanced tester may no longer be adequate for the fastest chip, a situation where in self-testing may be the best solution for. B. Advantages of implementing BIST include 1. Lower cost of test, since the need for external electrical testing using an ATE will be reduced, if not eliminated;
3 Design and Implementation of Online BIST for Different Word Sizes of Memories 2. Better fault coverage, since special test structures can be incorporated onto the chips; 3. Shorter test times if the BIST can be designed to test more structures in parallel; 4. Easier customer support; and 5. Capability to perform tests outside the production electrical testing environment. The last advantage mentioned can actually allow the consumers themselves to test the chips prior to mounting or even after these are in the application boards. C. Disadvantages of implementing BIST include: 1. Additional silicon area and fab processing requirements for the BIST circuits; 2. Reduced access times; 3. Additional pin (and possibly bigger package size) requirements, since the BIST circuitry need a way to interface with the outside world to be effective; and 4. Possible issues with the correctness of BIST results, since the on-chip testing hardware itself can fail. TABLE I: BIST of Embedded RAMS III. TRANSPARENT TESTING OF RAM MODULES The drawbacks of existing system are, in transparent BIST the signature prediction phase adds the total testing time up to 30% and separate BIST modules are used for each RAM which increases the hardware overhead. In transparent BIST the content of the memory at the end of the test is identical to before the test. Since the read elements of signature prediction phase is identical to the read elements of the testing phase. But in my proposed work, more than one memory with varying word widths is used when the number of stages of the ALU is larger than the memory word width. The block diagram and flow diagram of the proposed methodology are shown in fig 2 and 3.First, the number of bits in the RAM is initialized. Here, RAMs of different word widths are used. By creating the rules, the fault addresses are checked by using BIST. From that, row and column address information from BIST are predicted. These faulty addresses are copied to RAM arrays. The next block is March test. The test is marching through memory. From these, all these information are fed to solution stage by multiplexing all the address separate for rows and columns. The next block is extracting March bits. March 1 bit begins by writing backgrounds of 0s then read and write back complement values for all cells. Marching-0 follows exactly the same pattern, with the data reversed. The next block is checking error and finally each possible solution one and thus do not require the parallel sub analyzers are evaluated. This form gives the easiest way to predict solution for faulty address. TABLE II: Notations for symmetric transparent BIST

CONCLUSION In the paper they have specified that by making use of this proposed architecture we can reduce the block that generates a signature analyzer and we can reduce a comparator to compare the signature the scheme presented for the testing of RAM modules using the symmetric transparent principle. In this paper testing of RAM modules has been presented using the symmetric transparent principle. This scheme tests a RAM utilizing an ALU module whose number of stages can be larger than the word width and that can be used to test an array of RAM modules where the largest RAM word width does not exceed the number of stages of ALU.
