: In this paper logical cells and algorithms are presented supporting the design of pseudo-exhaustively testable circuits. The approach is based on real hardware segmentation, inst...
Abstract - An approach to top down design for testability using register-transfer level(RTL) partial scan selection is described. We propose a scan selection technique based on tes...
With several commercial tools becoming available, the high-level synthesis of applicationspeci c integrated circuits is nding wide spread acceptance in VLSI industry today. Existi...
We describe a method to clock the domino pipeline at the maximum rate by using soft synchronizers between pipeline stages and thus allowing "time borrowing," i.e., allow...
Improving testability during the early stages of High-level synthesis has several advantages including reduced test hardware overhead and design iterations. Recently, BIST techniq...
