Abstract

Abstract The device has a memory cell part, with test bit rows (TB1, TB2) along bit lines, and/or with test word rows (TW1 to TW3) along word lines. At least one row of the test bit rows and/or the test word rows (TW3) has a different write-in ratio from that of the other test bit row or rows and/or the other test word row or rows (TW1 and TW2).

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 75 words
A field programmable device comprising a memory cell part having a plurality of test bit rows provided along bit lines of the memory cell part and/or a plurality of test word rows provided along word lines of the memory cell part, characterised in that at least one of the test bit and/or test word rows is written-in with a different write-in ratio from that of the other test bit and/or test word row or rows.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 75 words
A field programmable device comprising a memory cell part having a plurality of test bit rows provided along bit lines of the memory cell part and/or a plurality of test word rows provided along word lines of the memory cell part, characterised in that at least one of the test bit and/or test word rows is written-in with a different write-in ratio from that of the other test bit and/or test word row or rows.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 118 words
A device as claimed in claim 1, in which a first row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows comprises a code of a predetermined code pattern, "0,1,1,0,1,0,0,1, ..." , obtained by s-tting an address signal bit A 0 of an address signal to 1" and forming a code beginning with A O A O , succeeded by an inverted code A O A O to form a code A O A O A O A O , succeeded by an inverted code A O A O A O A O to form a code A O A O A O A O A O A O A O A O and so on.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 46 words
A device as claimed in claim 2, in which a second row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows comprises a code pattern inverted with respect to that of thesaid first row of the test bit rows and/or the test word rows.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 53 words
A device as claimed in claim 2 or 3, in which the said first-row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows has its code pattern arranged so that actual physically geographically neighbouring bits in that row contain inverse information from one bit to the other, e.g. "1"'s and "0"'s..
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 39 words
A device as claimed in claim 2, or claim 4 read appended to claim 2, in which a second row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows has a 100% write-in ratio, containing all "1"'s.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 39 words
A device as claimed in claim 2,or claim 4 read as appended to claim 2, in which a second row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows has a 0% write-in ratio, containing all "0"'s.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 31 words
A device as claimed in claim 3, in which a third row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows, has a 100% write-in ratio, containing all "1"'s.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 36 words
A device as claimed in claim 3, in which a third row of the test bit rows and/or of the test bit rows has a 0% write-in ratio, containing all "0"'s. as appendant to claim 2,
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 37 words
A device as claimed in claim 4 / in which a third row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows has a 100% write-in ratio, containing all "1"'s. as appendant to claim 2,
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 30 words
A device as claimed in claim 4/in which a third row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows has a 0% write-in ratio, containing all "0"'s.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 55 words
A device as claimed in claim 1, in which at least one row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows has a 100% write-in ratio, containing all "1"'s, or at least one row of the test bit rows and/or the test word rows has a 0% write-in ratio, containing all "0"'s.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 86 words
A device as claimed in claim 1, in which a first row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows contains an actual physical geographical code pattern in which "O"'s and "1"'s appear alternately, a second row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows contains a code pattern the inverse of that of the first row, and a third row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows has a 100% write-in ratio, containing all "1"'s.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 91 words
A device as claimed in claim 1, in which a first row of the test bit rows and /or of the test word rows contains an actual physical geographical code pattern in which "0"'s and "1"'s appear alternately, a second row of the test bit row and/or of the test word rows contains and a third row a code pattern the inverse of that of the first row, and a third row of the test bit rows and/or of the test word rows has a 0% write-in ratio, containing all "0"'s.
