Address and Data Scrambling: Causes and Impact on Memory Tests
نویسندگان
چکیده
The way address sequences and data patterns appear on the outside of a memory may differ from their internal appearance; this effect is referred to as scrambling, which has a large impact on the effectiveness of the used tests. This paper presents an analysis of address and data scrambling for memory chips, at the layout and at the electrical level. A method is presented to determine the data backgrounds to be used for the different memory tests. It will be shown that the required data backgrounds are fault model, and hence, also test specific. Industrial results will show the influence of the used data backgrounds on the fault coverage of the tests.

A High Performance Parallel IP Lookup Technique Using Distributed Memory Organization and ISCB-Tree Data Structure
The IP Lookup Process is a key bottleneck in routing due to the increase in routing table size, increasing traıc and migration to IPv6 addresses. The IP address lookup involves computation of the Longest Prefix Matching (LPM), which existing solutions such as BSD Radix Tries, scale poorly when traıc in the router increases or when employed for IPv6 address lookups. In this paper, we describe a ...

متن کاملThe Effect of Bilingualism/ Monolinguals on L2 Working Memory Capacity and Verbal Intelligence
Issues related to bilingualism and the effects which might have on language learners’ cognitive and meta-cognitive variables have attracted the attention of a couple of researchers in the field of Second Language Acquisition (SLA).Since a couple of decades ago, there has been a plethora of studies on cognitive and metacognitive differences between bilinguals and monolinguals. However, the impac...
متن کاملCipher text only attack on speech time scrambling systems using correction of audio spectrogram
Recently permutation multimedia ciphers were broken in a chosen-plaintext scenario. That attack models a very resourceful adversary which may not always be the case. To show insecurity of these ciphers, we present a cipher-text only attack on speech permutation ciphers. We show inherent redundancies of speech can pave the path for a successful cipher-text only attack. To that end, regularities ...
متن کاملIndustrial evaluation of DRAM SIMM tests
This paper describes the results of testing 50 single inline memory modules (SIMMs), each containing 16 16Mbit DRAM chips (DUTs); 39 SIMMs failed, and of the 800 DUTs, 116 failed. In total 54 different test algorithms have been applied, using up to 168 different stress combinations for each test. The results show that GAL9R is the best test. Furthermore, it is shown that burst mode tests detect...
