  • Abstract
    The advantages of low power dissipation and smaller chip area for single-ended SRAM are well known. In this paper we present the configuration and the test strategy of a single-ended six-transistor SRAM. The benefits of short test time, no retention test and high test coverage are verified. The goal of high quality control and short test time of full CMOS SRAM test can be achieved
