APPENDIX
8. A method of testing data transfers, comprising the
steps of:
transferring a multiple word data string through at
least one circuit element and along a bus to a circuit output;
capturing a first word of the multiple word data string
as it travels along the bus;
analyzing the first word’s accuracy and communicating a
pass or fail indication to a test user;
waiting for the multiple word data string transferring
through at least one circuit element to repeat at least one time;
and
repeating the steps of capturing a word of the multiple
word data string, analyzing the word’s accuracy, and
communicating a pass or fail indication until all the words in
the multiple word data string have been tested, whereby each
repeating step analyzing a subsequent word’s accuracy in the
multiple word data string and whereby testing of each word of the
multiple word data string is accomplished at a fraction of the
frequency of the multiple word data string.
