In order to explain the technical solution described in the present application, the following description will be given by way of specific examples.
The single event effect test analysis method of the memory provided by the embodiment of the application aims to classify single event upset when the memory is subjected to single event effect test by combining the structure and the characteristics of the dynamic memory, and obtain a classification category corresponding to the single event upset. And then, the classification types of the single event upset are counted and analyzed, so that the sensitive position of the memory where the single event upset occurs is deduced. The method is suitable for single particle irradiation test analysis before and after the dynamic memory is reinforced, irradiation resistance reinforcement and evaluation of the sensitive position of the memory device are realized, and the pertinence is strong.
In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to fig. 1, and fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a basic method of a single event effect test analysis method for a memory according to an embodiment of the present application. The details are as follows:
in step S101, error data of a single event upset occurring in the single event effect test performed by the memory is acquired.
In the embodiment, the single event effect test system is used for carrying out the single event effect test on the memory to obtain the error data corresponding to the single event upset of the memory in the test process. Specifically, in the irradiation environment, initial data is correspondingly written into each address of the memory, and the initial data may be random code initial data, all 0 code initial data, or all 1 code initial data. And then, carrying out data reading operation on the memory once to obtain the test data of all the addresses of the memory. Comparing the read test data with the initial data bit by bit according to the address, if the test data is not consistent with the initial data, recording the dislocation data of the data bit, and recording the error address. And counting all error data after traversing the memory.
In step S102, based on the error data, the single event upset occurring in the memory is classified and identified according to a preset single event upset classification and identification rule, so as to obtain a classification category of the single event upset.
In this embodiment, the memory is subjected to single event upset at different positions, and the error data obtained by testing the memory correspondingly has different performance characteristics. In this embodiment, in combination with the structure and characteristics of the memory, the single event upset may be divided into multiple categories according to the position of the single event upset in the memory. For example, the classification may include at least one of: the method comprises the following steps of single-event upset of a storage unit, single-event upset of a column address register, single-event upset of a row address register, single-event upset of a mode register and single-event upset of a control module. For the classification type of single event upset of the memory cells, error data obtained by testing the memory cells are represented as discrete address distribution. For the classification type of single event upset of the column address register, the error data obtained by testing the column address register is represented as continuous address errors, and the error length is within a set length range. For the classification type of single event upset of the row address register, the error data obtained by testing the row address register is represented as continuous address errors, the error length exceeds one row, and the row address register can be recovered if refreshed. For the classification type of mode register single event upset, error data obtained by testing the classification type shows that the error data can be recovered after the register is reconfigured. For the classification type of single event upset of the control module, the error data obtained by testing the classification type shows that the error data can be recovered after being electrified again. In this embodiment, the error data expression characteristics corresponding to each classification category are used as a classification identification rule, and single event upset occurring in the memory during the test is classified and identified according to the error data obtained through the single event upset effect test, so that all classification categories of the single event upset occurring in the memory during the test are identified and obtained.
In step S103, a statistical analysis of the single event upset data is performed on the memory according to the classification category of the single event upset, and a sensitive location of the memory where the single event upset occurs is determined.
In this embodiment, for the error data obtained by the single event upset test, classification is performed according to the features expressed by the error data, and classification categories corresponding to all single event upsets can be obtained. For one single event upset test of the memory, multiple types of single event upsets may occur, and at this time, the single event upset number of each classification type can be obtained by identifying the classification of the single event upsets and then performing data statistical analysis of the single event upsets on the memory according to the classification type of the single event upsets. The classification categories with larger single event upset number are more sensitive to the corresponding positions in the memory. Therefore, after all classification categories of the single event upset are obtained through classification and identification, statistical analysis is carried out on the classification categories, the number of the single event upset occurring at each position of the memory can be known, and the sensitive position of the memory can be judged and determined according to the number of the single event upset occurring. In some specific embodiments, a number threshold may be set as a determination criterion for a sensitive location of the memory, and if the number of single event upsets occurring at a certain location of the memory exceeds the number threshold, the location is determined to be the sensitive location of the memory.
The single event effect test analysis method for the memory provided by the embodiment can be used for counting the number of single event upsets of the memory in an irradiation environment and carrying out classification analysis on the positions of the single event upsets, can be used for deducing the sensitive positions of the memory where the single event upsets occur from data, and is suitable for single event irradiation test analysis before and after reinforcing the dynamic memory. Therefore, irradiation resistance reinforcement and evaluation are carried out on the sensitive position of the memory device, and pertinence is strong.
In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to fig. 2, which is a schematic flow chart illustrating a method for determining single event upset classification in the single event effect testing and analyzing method for a memory according to the present application. The details are as follows:
in step S201, identifying an error length of error data corresponding to the single event upset;
in step S202, comparing the error length with a preset first length threshold, wherein the first length threshold is set to be 1 burst read length;
in step S203, for error data with an error length smaller than a preset first length threshold, classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data as a single event upset of the memory cell.
In this embodiment, after all the error data are obtained through traversing the memory statistics, the number of consecutive address errors in the error data corresponding to the single event upset is identified. For example, if the addresses corresponding to 1, 3, 6, 7, 8, and 10 of 10 consecutive addresses of the memory are erroneous, the number of consecutive address errors of the first single event upset is recorded as 1, the number of consecutive address errors of the second single event upset is recorded as 1, the number of consecutive address errors of the third single event upset is recorded as 3, and the number of consecutive address errors of the fourth single event upset is recorded as 1.
In this embodiment, the consecutive address errors are the error length of the error data. And comparing the error length with a preset first length threshold, and classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data into the single event upset of the memory unit if the error length of the error data is smaller than the preset first length threshold. In this embodiment, the preset first length threshold is set as a burst read length, where the burst read length is an address length read once when the memory reads data, and may be one address length, or two address lengths, four address lengths, and so on, and the specific burst read length may be set by a tester according to its actual needs. For example, if the memory is set to read data address by address, the burst read length at this time is the length of one address, and if the memory is set to read data of two addresses at a time, the burst read length at this time is the length of two addresses. Assuming that the burst read length is set to be two addresses in the test, for the four single event upsets in the above example, the first, second, and fourth may be classified as memory cell single event upsets.
In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to fig. 3, and fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart illustrating another method for determining single event upset classification in the single event effect testing and analyzing method for a memory according to the present application. The details are as follows:
in step S301, comparing the error length with a preset second length threshold, where the second length threshold is set to be 3 burst read lengths;
in step S302, for the error data with the error length greater than the preset second length threshold, performing data re-reading processing on the memory, and comparing a second error address obtained by re-reading with the first error address obtained originally;
in step S303, if the second error address is not consistent with the first error address, classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data as row address register single event upset, otherwise, performing initialization and data re-reading processing on the memory, and comparing a third error address obtained by re-reading with the second error address;
in step S304, if the third error address obtained after the initialization and data re-reading processing of the memory is inconsistent with the second error address, classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data as mode register single event upset, otherwise, performing power-on and data re-reading processing on the memory again, and comparing the fourth error address obtained by re-reading with the third error address;
in step S305, if the fourth error address obtained after the power-up and data re-reading processes is inconsistent with the third error address, classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data as the control module single event upset, otherwise classifying the single event upset as the damage of the memory device.
In this embodiment, for three categories, namely row address register single event upset, mode register single event upset, and control module single event upset, the error length of the error data exceeds 3 burst read lengths, and the performance characteristics of the error data can disappear after the inverted register is reset (refreshed). The row address register single event upset can disappear by directly refreshing the address, the error data of the mode register single event upset can disappear after the register is reconfigured, and the error data of the control module register upset can disappear after the register is powered on again. Therefore, a second length threshold is preset and is used for judging whether the single event upset corresponding to the error data is one of three categories, namely the row address register single event upset, the mode register single event upset and the control module single event upset, and the second length threshold is set to be 3 burst reading lengths. In this embodiment, after all the error data are obtained through traversing the memory statistics, the number of consecutive address errors of single event upset in the error data is identified, and the number of consecutive address errors of single event upset is the error length of the single event upset. Comparing the error length of single-particle upset with a preset second length threshold, firstly, re-reading the memory to refresh the row address register and read all the error addresses and error numbers of single-particle upset for error data with the error length larger than the preset second length threshold. And comparing a second error address obtained by re-reading with a first error address obtained originally, and classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data into row address register single event upset if the second error address is inconsistent with the first error address. If the second error address is consistent with the first error address, further judging whether the error data is mode register single event upset. Specifically, the memory is initialized and data is read again, and all single event upset error addresses and error numbers are read. And then comparing a third error address obtained by the data re-reading processing with a second error address obtained by the last data re-reading processing, and classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data into the single event upset of the mode register if the third error address is inconsistent with the second error address. If the third error address is consistent with the second error address, whether the error data is the single event upset of the control module is further judged. Specifically, the memory is powered up again and data is read again, and all single event upset error addresses and error numbers are read. And then comparing a fourth error address obtained by the data re-reading processing with a third error address obtained by the last data re-reading processing, and classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data into the single event upset of the control module if the fourth error address is inconsistent with the third error address. If the fourth error address is identical to the third error address, the memory device is classified as defective.
In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to fig. 4, and fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating another method for determining single event upset classification in the single event effect testing and analyzing method for a memory according to the embodiments of the present application. The details are as follows:
in step S401, comparing the error length with a preset length range to determine whether the error length falls within the preset length range, wherein the preset length range is set to 1-3 burst read lengths;
in step S402, for error data with an error length falling within a preset length range, the single event upset corresponding to the error data is classified as a column address register single event upset.
In this embodiment, after all the error data are obtained by traversing the memory statistics, the column address is refreshed once every time the memory reads data, that is, the column address error only affects the addresses with the burst read length of 1 to 3. Thus, a length range of 1-3 burst read lengths is preset. And comparing the error length of the single particle overturn with the preset length range, so as to determine whether the error length falls into the preset length range. And if the error length falls into a preset length range, classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data into the single event upset of the column address register.
In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to fig. 5, and fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a test analysis of a single event effect test analysis method for a memory according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 5, the memory is powered on first, and then the memory is initialized, including the precharge process, the auto-refresh data process, and the setting of the mode register. Then, the memory is subjected to read-write cycle configuration under irradiation conditions, i.e., initial data (random code, all 0's, all 1's, etc.) is written. And therefore, entering a single event effect test stage, performing data reading processing for the first time, acquiring error data of single event upset in the process of performing the single event effect test on the memory, and counting error addresses and error numbers of all the single event upset. Classifying single event upset corresponding to error data with the continuous address error number smaller than 1 burst reading length into single event upset of a storage unit according to the address length (namely burst reading length) read once when the data is read by a memory; and classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data with the continuous address error number more than or equal to 1 burst reading length and less than or equal to 3 burst reading lengths into the single event upset of the column address register.
In this embodiment, for error data with a continuous address error number greater than 3 burst read lengths, a second data read process is performed to refresh the row address register and read all the error addresses and error numbers of single event upsets. And comparing the error data with the continuous address error number larger than 3 burst reading lengths obtained by the second data reading processing with the error data with the continuous address error number larger than 3 burst reading lengths in the first read data, and classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data with the continuous address error number larger than 3 burst reading lengths in the second read data as the single event upset of the row address register if the error address of the error data in the second read data is inconsistent with the error address of the error data in the first read data.
In this embodiment, if the error addresses of the error data read for the first time and the second time are identical, the initialization processing is performed on the memory to rewrite the code pattern and the configuration register, and then the data reading processing for the third time is performed to read the error addresses and the error numbers of all single event upsets. And comparing the error data with the continuous address error number larger than 3 burst reading lengths obtained by the third data reading processing with the error data with the continuous address error number larger than 3 burst reading lengths in the second read data, and classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data with the continuous address error number larger than 3 burst reading lengths in the third read data as the mode register single event upset if the error address of the error data in the third read is inconsistent with the error address of the error data in the second read.
In this embodiment, if the error addresses of the error data read for the second time and the third time are the same, the memory is powered up again, the code pattern and the configuration register are rewritten through initialization, and then the data read for the fourth time is performed to read the error addresses and the error numbers of all single event upsets. And comparing the error data with the continuous address error number larger than 3 burst reading lengths obtained by the fourth data reading processing with the error data with the continuous address error number larger than 3 burst reading lengths in the third read data, and classifying the single event upset corresponding to the error data with the continuous address error number larger than 3 burst reading lengths in the fourth read as the control module single event upset if the error address of the error data in the fourth read is inconsistent with the error address of the error data in the third read. Otherwise, it is determined that the memory device is defective.
In some embodiments of the application, when error data of single event upset occurring in a process of performing single event effect test on a memory is acquired, a test starting time and a test ending time can be recorded, so that the fluence of the memory for performing single event effect test is calculated according to the test starting time and the test ending time, and therefore, a single event upset cross section can be generated by combining the number of single event upsets occurring in the memory, the irradiation time and the fluence of the memory for performing single event effect test.
