if you want to write a simulative-module --

Hi,
usually, bist_insertion is done by script(perl,..) on the netlist.
you need to write 2 scripts to do the following things on your netlist:
1. bist_wrapper insert:
search RAM in netlist
insert bist_wrapper
2. bist_wrapper join
join alll bist_wrapper and connect them to you bist_controller.

Your can search Internet fow bist doc, and write script yourself.

If you want to write the actual BIST logic from scratch (i.e. not use someone elses code), the you need to web search for the "March G" algorithm. Look for a paper by AJ van de Goor. Most March tests are for bit oriented memory, so also look for his paper about word-orientated March tests.
