The present invention discloses a reprogrammable built-in-self-test
integrated circuit and a test method for the same, wherein test programs
are directly stored in the application program memory of the logic chip
of a SoC IC, and an external test apparatus is used to load the test
programs into the application program memory via a serial transmission
interface, and an application CPU is used to read and execute the test
programs to perform the bonding-wire connectivity between the logic chip
and the memory chip. In the present invention, test vectors can still be
flexibly revised after tapeout to increase test coverage. As the test
programs are directly stored in the existing application program memory
without using additional memory space, and as the test programs are
executed by the existing application CPU without using an extra
built-in-self-test circuit, the present invention can effectively reduce
test cost.
