Method, apparatus and storage medium for testing chip, and chip thereof
A method and an apparatus for testing a chip, as well as a storage medium, and a chip thereof are provided. The chip includes an operation module. The method includes receiving, via a first pin of the chip, a test control signal indicating a test type of the operation module; performing a first test for the operation module using a first test vector based on the test type; or performing a second test for the operation module using a second test vector, where the first test is a test for the memory included in the operation module and the second test is a test for the functional logic in included in the operation module.
Row redundancy techniques
Various implementations described herein are related to a method for identifying multi-bank memory architecture having multiple banks including a first bank and a second bank. The method may receive a faulty row address having a faulty bank selection bit, and also, the method may select the first bank or the second bank for row redundancy operations based on the faulty bank selection bit.
Automated test equipment for testing one or more devices under test, method for automated testing of one or more devices under test, and computer program using a buffer memory
An automated test equipment for testing one or more devices under test comprising a plurality of port processing units, comprising at least a respective buffer memory, and a respective high-speed-input-output, HSIO, interface for connecting with at least one of the devices under test. The port processing units are configured to receive data, store the received data in the respective buffer memory, and provide the data stored in the respective buffer memory to one or more of the connected devices under test via the respective HSIO interface for testing the one or more connected devices under test. A method and computer program for automated testing of one or more devices under test are also described.
Device, method and system of error detection and correction in multiple devices
A method tests at least three devices, each device including a test chain having a plurality of positions storing test data. The testing includes comparing test data in a last position of the test chain of each of the devices, and shifting test data in the test chains of each of the devices and storing a result of the comparison in a first position of the test chains of each of the devices. The comparing and the shifting and storing are repeated until all the stored test data has been compared. The at least three devices may have a same functionality and a same structure.
Automated test equipment using an on-chip-system test controller
An automated test equipment for testing a device under test comprises an on-chip-system-test controller. The on-chip system test controller comprises at least one debug interface or control interface configured to communicate with the device under test. The on-chip-system-test controller optionally comprises at least one high bandwidth interface configured to communicate with the device under test. The on-chip-system-test controller is configured to control a test of a device-under-test which is a system-on-a chip.
Automated testing machine with data processing function and information processing method thereof
An automated testing machine with data processing function and an information processing method thereof are introduced. The automated testing machine includes a test head for testing more than one device under testing (DUT), and the test head further includes a test processing unit for providing more than one electrical test signal to the DUTs and conducting a processing and analyzing on more than one electrical feedback data fed back from the DUTs, so as to generate analysis result information. With the test processing unit capable of conducting data processing directly provided in the test head, signals obtained from the DUTs can be directly analyzed and processed to enable increased data processing efficiency, increased convenience in use and reduced costs of the automated test machine and the information processing method thereof.
Leakage Screening Based on Use-Case Power Prediction
This document describes techniques and systems for leakage screening based on power prediction. In particular, the described systems and techniques estimate, during a silicon manufacturing process, use-case power (e.g., low power, ambient power, high power, gaming power) to apply leakage screening for apart (e.g., a chip package). In some aspects, measurable silicon parameters (e.g., leakage values, bin values, processor sensor values) may be used for use-case power prediction. Using the described techniques, a maximum allowable predicted use-case power can be determined and used for leakage screening regardless of an individual rail leakage or voltage bin assignment.
MEMORY DEVICE TEST METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM, MEDIUM, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE

END OF LIFE PERFORMANCE THROTTLING TO PREVENT DATA LOSS
Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, memory devices, machine readable mediums configured to intentionally degrade NAND performance when a value of a NAND health metric indicates a potential for failure to encourage users to replace or backup their devices before data loss occurs. For example, the system may track a NAND health metric and when that metric reaches a predetermined threshold or state, the system may intentionally degrade performance. This performance degradation may be more effective than a warning to effect device backup or replacement.
