  • Abstract
    This correspondence presents an optimal algorithm to detect any single stuck-at-1 (s-a-1), stuck-at-0 (s-a-0) fault in a random access memory using only the n-bit memory address register input and m-bit memory buffer register input and output lines. It is shown that this algorithm requires 4 X 2nmemory accesses.
