PBIST fails if clock frequency of R5SS_CORE_CLK is not same as R5FSS_CLK_SELECTED frequency
The R5SS memories receive the R5SS CPU clock “R5SS_CORE_CLK” which is derived from R5SS_CLOCK_SELECTED root clock using programmable divider. When R5SS memories are tested using PBIST controller, the PBIST controller receives R5SS_CLOCK_SELECTED root clock. PBIST operation fails if different frequencies are chosen for the two clocks.
For PBIST to work with R5SS memories the frequency of both clocks need to be same. If application usage requires R5SS_CORE_CLK to be a divided frequency of R5SS_CLOCK_SELECTED, then during PBIST operation of R5SS memories, the application shall ensure the R5SS_CORE_CLK is configured to same frequency as R5SS_CLOCK_SELECTED.
