Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) SRAMs have different characteristics from those fabricated in traditional bulk silicon. Fault models and sensitivities must be considered when testing for SOI manufacturing defects. Circuit details of SOI SRAMs that relate to testing are presented and a new pattern is summarized which covers the related fault models.
