The sensitivity of very deep submicron designs to supply voltage noise is increasing due to higher path delay variations and reduced noise margins with supply noise scaling. The s...
As the sizes of general and special purpose processors increase rapidly, generating high quality manufacturing tests for them is becoming a serious problem in industry. This paper...
During synthesis of circuits for Boolean functions area, delay and testability are optimization goals that often contradict each other. Multi-level circuits are often quite small ...
In this paper, a novel test point insertion methodology is presented for RTL designs that aims to reduce the data volume of scan-based transition delay tests. Test points are iden...
— Test Pattern Generation for combinational circuits entails the identification of primary input assignments for detecting each fault in a set of target faults. An extension to ...
