Abstract :
An approach for design and evaluation of redundancy analysis algorithms based on vectors of preferences is proposed for memory devices with spare elements. Experiments on the application of the new algorithms for self-test and repair (STAR) type SRAM memories have shown the efficiency of the proposed approach
