Integrated circuit margin stress test system

摘要

Systems and methods are disclosed for testing a synchronous memory system by electrically stressing one or more electrical conditions of the component circuits; providing a Built-In Self-Test (BIST) controller to control the electrical stress during device testing; and providing a test stimuli during testing. In another aspect, the memory system testing includes setting a self-timed control input of the memory system to a predetermined self timed period value; and testing the memory based on the predetermined self timed period value.
