Achmad Aswin, S. Sankar Ganesh · SSRN Electronic Journal · 2019
This paper provides a survey of Implementation and Validation involved in Memory Built in Self-Test (MBIST). This paper comprises of the various strategies involved in the implementation and Validation of the Memory Built in Self-Test (MBIST). MBIST (Memory built-in self-test) provides an effective solution for testing of such large memories. Verification of functioning MBIST is an essential part in any SoC design cycle, as it enables the designer to detect beforehand any issues related to MBIST. The advantages of MBIST are simplicity of test program, Possibility to run different algorithm, Reduction in test cost, Possibility to run user defined algorithm on memories.
