Abstract

The invention provides a built-in self-test circuit, a built-in self-test system and a built-in self-test method for a flash memory. The built-in self-test circuit comprises a self-reading test module, a self-erasing test module, a self-programming test module and a command conversion module, wherein the self-reading test module is used for testing reading operation of the flash memory and sending a reading test result to the command conversion module, the self-erasing test module is used for testing erasing operation of the flash memory and sending an erasing test result to the command conversion module, the self-programming test module is used for testing programming operation of the flash memory and sending a programming test result to the command conversion module, and the command conversion module is used for sending test commands inputted by a test machine to the self-reading test module, the self-erasing test module and the self-programming test module, and sending the reading test result, the erasing test result and the programming test result to the test machine.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a built-in self-test circuit, system and method for flash memory. Background technique [0002] Embedded flash memory test occupies a considerable proportion in the whole semiconductor chip test. Due to the large size of the flash memory, the test time is long, the test pins are many, the program of the test machine is complicated, the test card pins are occupied, and the test cost is high. The prior art uses a built-in self-test circuit for flash memory to solve the above problems, but the shortening of the test time often results in more pins being occupied. At the same time, during the test, the complexity of the test machine program will also have a relatively large impact on the development and maintenance of the flash memory test. If the test is more comprehensive, the machine program will be very complicated, which makes the development and maintenance of the machi...
