PGTOOL: an automatic interactive program generation tool for testing new-generation memory devices
Yumika Kawabata, M. Maruyama, Alexis Tejeda · 2003
PGTOOL generates pattern and timing source files for device testing on the 1937 memory test system. Using macro files that describe the main sequence and testing specifications for patterns and timing, PGTOOL communicates this information in pictures, making programming faster, easier, and less prone to errors. The program combines automatic code generation with a graphics interface, resulting in higher-quality test programs, generated up to 87% faster than those created by conventional methods.>
