Abstract

An integrated circuit containing an SRAM that provides a switch to decouple the SRAM wordline voltage from the SRAM array voltage during screening and that also provides different wordline and array voltages during a portion of the SRAM bit screening test. A method for screening SRAM bits in an SRAM array in which the wordline voltage is different than the array voltage during a portion of the screening test.
