As technology advances, the metal width is decreasing with the length increasing, making the resistance along the power line increase substantially. Together with the nonlinear sc...
Due to shrinking technology, increasing functional frequency and density, and reduced noise margins with supply voltage scaling, the sensitivity of designs to supply voltage noise...
Continuous scaling of VLSI circuits is reducing gate delays but rapidly increasing interconnect delays. Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) roadmap predicts that, beyond the ...

At-speed testing of high-speed circuits is becoming increasingly difficult with external testers due to the growing gap between design and tester performance, growing cost of high...
One of the most challenging problems in post-silicon validation is to identify those errors that cause prohibitive extra delay on speedpaths in the circuit under debug (CUD) and o...
