Abstract

This paper modifies the tree RAM (TRAM) architecture[1] of multimegabit dynamic random access memories using a tree-star (TS) interconnection topology. The modified TS-RAM design offers a reduced access time and an improved yeild for the proposed TS-RAM architecture. We also propose an improved built-in self test (BIST) approach for the architecture.
