With the scaling of technology, transient errors caused by external particle strikes have become a critical challenge for microprocessor design. As embedded processors are widely ...
With the reducing distances between wires in deep submicron technologies, coupling capacitances are becoming significant as their magnitude becomes comparable to the area capacita...

Today’s CPUs consume a significant amount of power and generate a high amount of heat, requiring an active cooling system to support reliable operations. In case of cooling sys...
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...
1 This paper presents a transient faults sensitivity evaluation for Quasi Delay Insensitive (QDI) asynchronous circuits. Because of their specific architecture, asynchronous circui...
