A high-level test synthesis (HLTS) method targeted for delay fault testability is presented. The proposed method, when combined with hierarchical test pattern generation for embed...
When testing delay faults on critical paths, conventional structural test patterns may be applied in functionally-unreachable states, leading to over-testing or under-testing of t...
We investigate a characterization of hard-to-detect bridging faults. For circuits with large numbers of lines (or nodes), this characterization can be used to select target faults...
As the technology enters the nano dimension, the inherent unreliability of nanoelectronics is making fault-tolerant architectures increasingly necessary in building nano systems. ...
A technique is proposed to reduce the peak power consumption of sequential circuits during test pattern application. High-speed computation intensive VLSI systems, as telecommunica...
