Abstract:
A memory device with background built-in self-testing (BBIST) includes a plurality of memory blocks; a memory buffer to offload data from one of the plurality of memory blocks temporarily; and a memory block stress controller to control a stress test applied to the one of the memory blocks when the data is temporarily offloaded on the memory buffer. The stress test tests for errors in the one of the plurality of the memory blocks.
