Embodiment

[0022] The performance testing method of the FPGA embedded multiplier of the present embodiment, as figure 1 shown, including the following steps:

[0023] (1) Embedded multiplier IP core function design;

[0024] (2) Pseudo-random sequence test vector design;

[0025] (3) RTL-level code simulation;

[0026] (4) Test result analysis circuit design;

[0027] (5) Module replication and output logic design.

[0028] The traversal test is a test method that inputs all possible test stimuli to the circuit under test and observes the output results of the circuit under test. If the circuit under test is a combinational logic circuit, assuming that there are n data input pins in total, there are 2n types of test vectors. Assuming that the unit time for each test and completing the observation is t, the total time required to complete the test is 2n·t. For sequential circuits, the total test time will be longer. Therefore, walkthrough testing is generally suitable for circuits ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a performance testing method of an FPGA embedded multiplier, comprising the following steps: (1) IP core function design of the embedded multiplier; (2) pseudo-random sequence test vector design; (3) RTL-level code simulation; ( 4) Test result analysis circuit design; (5) Module replication and output logic design. The screening test method of the FPGA embedded multiplier provided by the present invention adopts the test method based on BIST, which solves the shortcomings of high ATE test cost and difficult test technology; at the same time, the pseudo-random sequence is used as the stimulus input, which reduces the test time. Improved testing efficiency. This method makes full use of the programmable characteristics of the FPGA chip, as well as the abundant programmable logic units and embedded memory units (Block Random Access Memory, BRAM) inside the chip. The invention has simple implementation steps, strong portability and certain engineering application value.
