Abstract
Examples of techniques for a built-in self-test (BIST) for embedded spin-transfer torque magnetic random access memory (STT-MRAM) are disclosed. In one example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a computer-implemented method may include: initiating, by a processor, a BIST for the STT-MRAM; performing, by the processor, an error-correcting code (ECC) test for a portion of the STT-MRAM; responsive to the ECC test not being passed, determining whether a maximum signal is reached; responsive to the maximum signal not being reached, increasing the signal and performing the ECC test again; and responsive to the maximum signal being reached, determining that the portion of the STT-MRAM is bad.
