Memory device and method for using shared latch elements thereof

Abstract

The present disclosure provides memory devices and methods for using shared latch elements thereof. A memory device includes a substrate, an interposer disposed over the substrate, and a logic die and stacked memory dies disposed over the interposer. In the logic die, the test generation module performs a memory test operation for the memory device. The functional elements stores functional data in latch elements during a functional mode of the memory device. The repair analysis module determines memory test/repair data based on the memory test operation. The memory test/repair data comprises memory addresses of faulty memory storage locations of the memory device that are identified during the memory test operation. The repair analysis module configures the latch elements into a scan chain, accesses the memory test/repair data during the test mode of the memory device, and repairs the memory device using the memory test/repair data.
