— Delay failures are becoming a dominant failure mechanism in nanometer technologies. Diagnosis of such failures is important to ensure yield and robustness of the design. Howeve...
Low power circuits have become a necessary part in modern designs. Retention flip-flop is one of the most important components in low power designs. Conventional test methodologie...

Recent results indicate that functional test pattern generation (TPG) techniques may provide better defect coverages than do traditional logic-level techniques. Functional TPG alg...
Due to the increased speed in modern designs, testing for delay faults has become an important issue in the postproduction test of manufactured chips. A high fault coverage is nee...
