Test of NoC System Communication Link Based on BIST
Wan Chuntin · Electronic Science and Technology · 2014
With the development of Network-on-chip(NoC) system,it is necessary to test the Network-on-chip communication link. In this paper,the Build-In Self Test(Build-In Self Test,BIST) technology has been used to complete the communication link testing of the NoC system. The testing includes the link testing between the router node and the testing between a router node and the resource node which is connected with it. Verilog HDL language described with hardware is used to complete the design of each testing module. Then the logic analyzer with Quartus II software is used to complete the testing on NoC system hardware platform based on FPGA. The test method not only improves the fault coverage,but also greatly reduces testing time.
