We propose in this paper an extension on the Scan Chain Concealment technique to further reduce test time and volume requirement. The proposed methodology stems from the architect...
We introduce and analyze the ground bounce due to power mode transition in power gating structures. To reduce the ground bounce, we propose novel power gating structures in which ...

ForSyDe (FORmal SYstem DEsign) is a methodology which addresses the design of SoC applications which may contain control as well as data flow dominated parts. Starting with a for...
Design simplification is becoming necessary to respect the target time-to-market of SoCs, and this goal can be obtained by using predesigned IP-cores. However, their correct inte...
