    Abstract: In a BIST (built-in-self-test) system (300) for testing flash memory cells (304) fabricated on a semiconductor substrate (302), a BIST (built-in-self-test) interface (312), a front-end state machine (314), and a back-end state machine (316) are fabricated on the semiconductor substrate (302). The BIST interface (312) inputs test mode data from an external test system (318), and the front-end state machine (314) decodes the test mode data to determine an order for performing at least one desired test mode. The back-end state machine (316) performs the at least one desired test mode on the flash memory cells (304) according to the order for on-­chip testing of the flash memory cells (304).

    Abstract translation: 在用于测试制造在半导体衬底(302)上的闪存单元(304)的BIST(内置自测试)系统(300)中,BIST(内置自检)接口(312), 前端状态机(314)和后端状态机(316)制造在半导体衬底(302)上。 BIST接口(312)从外部测试系统(318)输入测试模式数据,并且前端状态机(314)解码测试模式数据,以确定执行至少一个所需测试模式的顺序。 后端状态机(316)根据闪速存储器单元(304)的片上测试顺序在闪速存储单元(304)上执行至少一个期望的测试模式。
