TMS570LS3137: Questions about PBIST module

Part Number: TMS570LS3137

1.Why there are no RDS and RGS information about TCRAM in table 2-5?
2.If a self-test algorithm runs on corresponding RAM , after self-test completed, the value of field RDS in RAMT is "1", what's the meaning of the "1" ?If the value is "0",what's the meaning?
3.In register list(the photo1),STR is a resvd register, and couldn't be writen. But in the example context(the photo2), it can be writen to resume self-test. It's inconsistent, which one is true?

  • Hello,

    1. RGS is register group select, and RDS is register data select. 

    2. If you run PBIST for all the MibSPI (MibSPI1, MibSPI3, MibSP5) RAMs, after the pbist completes, the RGS is the group number of MibSPI5 RAM (RGS=7), and RDS is the last one of MibSPI5 (RDS=11).

    3. You can write 0x2 to this reserved register, but the readback data from this reserved register may not be the same as the written value.
