BIST is an attractive approach to detect delay faults due to its inherent support for at-speed test. Deterministic logic BIST (DLBIST) is a technique which was successfully applie...
- As shown by previous studies, shorts between the interconnect wires should be considered as the predominant cause of failures in CMOS circuits. Fault models and tools for targeti...

An in-circuit diagnostic test structure triggered by a light pulse captures logic states on-chip with picosecond timing accuracy, and the results read out via a scan chain thus pr...
