  • Patent number: 11763908
    Abstract: A variety of applications can include systems and methods that include a memory system tester having an analyzer coupled to a test flow controller. The test flow controller can be arranged to generate test signals to a memory system with the analyzer arranged to couple to test pads of a package platform for the memory system. The analyzer can provide data to the test flow controller to conduct testing and/or debugging of the memory system, with the data based on real time monitoring of the test pads of the package platform. In various embodiments, the analyzer can provide data feedback to the test flow controller in real time such that the test flow controller can control the flow of test signals to the memory system in real time. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.

  • Patent number: 6940756
    Abstract: A non-volatile memory device suitable to be programmed in a sequential mode. The device includes a plurality of blocks of memory cells each one for storing a word, each block being identified by an address. An input circuit for loading an input address at the beginning of a programming procedure and an internal circuit for setting an internal address to the input address. The device further includes a data input circuit for loading a predetermined number of input words in succession, and a latch circuit for latching a page consisting of the predetermined number of input words. The memory then executes a programming operation including writing the page in the blocks identified by consecutive addresses starting from the internal address, and increments the internal address of the predetermined number in response to the completion of the programming operation.
