Abstract
In general, various methods, apparatuses, and systems are described in which logic executes, in series, a plurality of repair algorithms to generate a repair signature for a memory. The memory has a full set of redundant components associated with the memory. At least one or more of the repair algorithms employ a subset of redundant components that contains less than all of the redundant components in the full set when attempting to generate the repair signature.
