1N - Single pass wscan for IDDQ and data retention style tests<br />

The CAMBIST performs a simultaneous match check across all 32 entries by comparing each<br />

entry against an incoming compare value. This function is executed by performing a bitwise<br />

XOR of the inverted compare value and each individual CAM entry. If the XOR is true, a hit is<br />

determined. CAMBIST tests this compare function by testing that each CAM bit is capable of<br />

generating a hit and a miss for both 1 and 0.<br />

CAMBIST performs the following sequence:<br />

1. Write all entries with 0xA.<br />

2. Write 0s to entry 0.<br />
