Abstract
Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with at-speed testing of static random access memory (SRAM) are described. In one embodiment, a method includes loading, into a multi-stage pipeline of memory devices, a control pattern for testing a static random access memory (SRAM). The SRAM is tested by generating a test input that is based, at least in part, on the control pattern from the multi-stage pipeline of flip-flops. The test input is provided to the SRAM over a series of clock cycles that are at a core clock speed of the SRAM.
