3.7 TEST SECTION 7
March Ones and Zeros Test
Step
71.
March Ones/Zeros -- This step marches first ones and then zeros through each 32K -byte block
of memory. Each 32K-byte block of memory is written to all zeros. Then each location is read
for a zero and then written to all ones. When the block contains all ones, the process is repeated
by reading each location for all ones and then writing a zero. The error latch is checked after
each 3 2K - byte block of memory is completed.
