7.5.3 PBIST Activate/Clock Enable Register (PACT)
This is the first register that needs to be programmed to activate the PBIST controller. Bit [0] is used for
static clock gating, and unless a 1 is written to this bit, all the internal PBIST clocks are shut off.
and
illustrate this register.
NOTE:
This register must be programmed to 1h during application self-test.

PACT0
This bit must be set to 1 to turn on the PBIST internal clocks. Setting this bit asserts an internal signal that
is used as the clock gate enable. As long as this bit is 0, any access to the PBIST will not go through and
the PBIST will remain in an almost zero-power mode.
