Abstract

According to an embodiment, a method for testing and repairing local memory in a hardware accelerator from a one-time programmable memory (OTP) is provided. The method includes asserting a grant signal, a loading of a first repair data for a sub-set of the local memory associated with a main-controller from a first partition of the OTP memory, communicating a status signal after completion of the loading indicating a completion of the loading, and de-asserting the grant signal in response to receiving the status signal.
