    Abstract: A write-assisted memory includes a pre-charge assist circuit that assists the pre-charge of the power supply voltage on a power supply lead for an accessed memory cell in a bit-line-multiplexed group of memory cells subsequent to a write-assist period by coupling charge from the power supply leads for the remaining non-accessed memory cells in the bit-line-multiplexed group of memory cells.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for memory built-in self-test (MBIST) may be configured to load a testing program from an MBIST controller, execute the testing program, and determine and write pass/fail results to a read-out register. For example, in various embodiments, the testing program may comprise one or more write operations that are configured to change data stored in a plurality of memory bitcells from a first value to a second value while a byte enable signal is asserted in order to test stability associated with a memory bitcell, create DC and AC noise due to byte enable mode stress, check at-speed byte enable mode timing, and execute a self-checking algorithm that may be designed to verify whether data is received at a data input (Din) pin. Any memory bitcells storing a value different from an expected value after performing the write operation(s) may be identified as having failed the MBIST.
