Online Fault Detection and Diagnosis in RRAM

Resistive Random Access Memory (RRAM, or ReRAM) is a promising memory technology to replace Flash because of its low power consumption, high storage density, and simple integration in existing IC production processes. This has motivated many companies to invest in this technology. However, RRAM manufacturing introduces new failure mechanisms and...

Structured Test Development Approach for Computation-in-Memory Architectures

Testing of Computation-in-Memory (CIM) designs based on emerging non-volatile memory technologies, such as resistive RAM (RRAM), is fundamentally different from testing traditional memories. Such designs allow not only for data storage (i.e., memory configuration) but also for the execution of logical and arithmetic operations (i.e., computing...
