The implementation of deterministic RAM self-test algorithms turns out to be very area-consuming when a single ASIC contains many small, deeply embedded RAMs.Therefore, we have opted to reuse and modify the existing functional logic and to use a combined deterministic pseudo-random self-test strategy. A novel fault coverage dculation method for this self-test strategy has been developed. The method is easy to use because it is fully integrated in a hardware description language based design environment. Results for a chip set for broadband ISDN show that the combination of pseudo-random data generation and deterministic addressing of the RAMS provides high fault coverage results. Circuitry overhead varies between 2 and 14 percent of the RAM surface.INTERNATIONAL TEST CONFERENCE 1993 0-7803-1 429-8/93 $3.00 1993 IEEE Paper 16.2
