SRAM and testing method of SRAM

1. An SRAM comprising:

a memory cell; and

a control circuit configured to change in a test mode of a read test mode and a write test mode, a signal level of a signal which is used for an access to said memory cell in an ordinary mode, to apply a disturbance to said memory cell,

wherein said control circuit optionally set the signal level based on the disturbance.

2. The SRAM according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a precharge circuit configured to precharge bit lines connected with said memory cell by use of a power supply voltage, before a data write or a data read to said memory cell in the ordinary mode,

wherein before the data read in the read test mode, said control circuit supplies a precharge signal with a voltage level lower than the power supply voltage, to said precharge circuit, and

said precharge circuit precharges said bit lines by use of said precharge signal.

3. The SRAM according to claim 1 , wherein before the data read in the read test mode, said control circuit activates a word line connected with said memory cell by use of a voltage higher than in the ordinary mode.

4. The SRAM according to claim 3 , wherein said control circuit activates said word line by use of a voltage lower than in the ordinary mode, when an inversion data of a data held by said memory cell is written in said memory cell in the write test mode.

5. The SRAM according to claim 1 , wherein before the data read in the read test mode, said control circuit changes the power supply voltage to be supplied to said memory cell, into a voltage lower than in the ordinary mode.

6. The SRAM according to claim 5 , wherein the power supply voltage to be supplied to said memory cell is changed in the write test mode, into a voltage higher than in the ordinary mode, when an inversion data of a data held by said memory cell is written in said memory cell.

7. A method of testing an SRAM, comprising:

writing a data in a memory cell; and

applying a disturbance to said memory cell by changing in a test mode of a read test mode and a write test mode, a signal level of a signal which is used for an access to said memory cell in an ordinary mode,

wherein said signal level is optionally set based on the disturbance.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein said applying comprises:

supplying a precharge signal with a voltage level which is lower than in the ordinary mode, to a precharge circuit, before a data read in the read test mode,

wherein said method further comprises:

precharging bit lines connected with said memory cell by said precharge circuit in response to the precharge signal; and

reading the data from said memory cell.

9. The method according to claim 7 , wherein said applying comprises:

activating a word line connected with said memory cell by use of a voltage which is higher than in the ordinary mode, before the data read in the read test mode.

10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein said applying comprises:

activating said word line by use of a voltage which is lower than in the ordinary mode in the write test mode, when writing in said memory cell, an inversion data to the data written in said memory cell.

11. The method according to claim 7 , wherein said applying comprises:

changing a power supply voltage to be supplied to said memory cell to a voltage which is lower than in the ordinary mode before the data read in the read test mode.

12. The method according to claim 11 , wherein said applying comprises:

changing in the write test mode, the power supply voltage to a voltage which is higher than in the ordinary mode when writing in said memory cell, an inversion data to the data written in said memory cell.
