The integrated circuits design flow is rapidly moving towards higher description levels. However, test-related activities are lacking behind this trend, mainly since effective faul...
The paper presents a novel hierarchical approach to test pattern generation for sequential circuits based on an input model of mixed-level decision diagrams. A method that handles,...
The effect of crosstalk errors is most significant in highperformance circuits, mandating at-speed testing for crosstalk defects. This paper describes a self-test methodology that...
Composite microsystems that integrate mechanical and fluidic components are fast emerging as the next generation of system-on-chip designs. As these systems become widespread in s...
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...
