The disclosure provides a method and apparatus of interleaved on-chip testing. The method merges a test setup for analog components with a test setup for digital components and then interleaves the execution of the digital components with the analog components. This provides concurrency via a unified mode of operation. The apparatus includes a system-on-chip test access port (SoC TAP) in communication with a memory test access port (MTAP). A built-in self-test (BIST) controller communicates with the MTAP, a physical layer, and a memory. A multiplexer is in communication with the memory and a phase locked loop (PLL) through an AND gate.
