FlashEndurance-Switch project
Running a FlashEndurance or FlashDisturb project
This section explains how to use the following Flash projects:
•
•
•
•
•
•
FlashEndurance-NAND
FlashEndurance-NOR
FlashEndurance-Switch
FlashDisturb-NAND
FlashDisturb-NOR
FlashDisturb-Switch
These Flash projects use a small number of tests and methods. This section will explain the tests
and how to set parameter values for Endurance testing or Disturb testing.
Before using any of these projects, determine the appropriate pulse voltages and widths by first
using the appropriate project, using the procedures in Running the Flash-NAND, Flash-NOR or
Flash-Switch Project.
The Endurance and Disturb projects include everything from the corresponding Flash-NAND,
Flash-NOR, or Flash-Switch projects. To use an Endurance or Disturb test, ensure that each test
in the project navigator is functioning properly by following the procedures below. After setting up
all of the tests, the information below will continue to explain the setup for the stress / measure
looping that is the core of any endurance or disturb test.
