ABSTRACT:
A data invert jump instruction test for a built-in self-test of a memory device is provided. The data invert system comprises a read only memory (72) operable to store a plurality of test algorithms wherein at least one of the test algorithms includes a data invert jump instruction (160). Also included is a data invert circuit (178) coupled to the read only memory (72) and a toggle register (188) within the data invert circuit (178). The toggle register (188) is set to one when the data invert jump instruction (160) occurs for the first time in the test algorithm. This causes the data invert circuit (178) to output the inverse of the data inputted through the data invert circuit (178).
