Abstract

See full text

In one embodiment, one portion of an SRAM array is stressed by first writing a “1” in every bit of the array, followed by an evaluation of the relevant parameters of the array using a ring oscillator driven by a mirrored bit-line current, the ring oscillator not in line of the bit-line of the SRAM. The other portion of the array is then stressed after writing a “0” in every bit of the array. The evaluation procedure is then repeated.
