  • Abstract
    This paper presents a BIST architecture, based on a single microprogrammable BIST processor and a set of memory wrappers, designed to simplify the test of a system containing many distributed multi-port SRAMs of different sizes (number of bits, number of words), access protocol (asynchronous, synchronous), and timing
