In SoC designs, limited test access to internal cores, lowcost external tester’s lack of accuracy and slow frequencies make application of at-speed tests impractical. Therefore,...
Crosstalk effects degrade the integrity of signals traveling on long interconnects and must be addressed during manufacturing testing. External testing for crosstalk is expensive ...
As System on a Chip (SoC) testing faces new challenges, some new test architectures must be developed. This paper describes a Test Access Mechanism (TAM) named CASBUS that solves ...
- The electrical effects of CMOS IC physical defects that caused stuck-openfaults are evaluated, including their voltage levels, quiescent power supply current (IDDQ), transient re...

Active decoupling capacitors (decaps) are more effective than passive decaps at reducing local IR-drop problems in the power distribution network. In the basic active decap, two p...
