If a compare error occurs, the write data, read data, and test address display on the screen. Addresses are displayed in 4KB increments during the test.

Test Process:

1.Byte Enable Test

One bit write/ 8 bit read” is executed and the new data is compared with the original data.

Test data = CCAA5533H, 80000000H

2.Byte Enable Test

“One bit write/16 bit read” is executed and the new data is compared with the original data.

Test data = CCAA5533H, 80000000H

3.Data bus test

“One bit write/16 bit read” is executed and the new data is compared with the original data.

Test data = 1H, 2H, 4H, 8H, 10H, through 80000000H.

4.Fixed data test

“16 bit write/ 16 bit read” is executed and the new data is compared to the original data.

Test data = FFFFFFFFH, 00000000H, 80018001H
