We describe a built-in test pattern generation method for scan circuits. The method is based on partitioning and storage of test sets. Under this method, a precomputed test set is...
A methodology is proposed to efficiently estimate the substrate noise generated by large scale aggressor circuits. Small spatial voltage differences within the ground distribution...

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...
With scaling down to deep submicron and nanometer technologies, noise immunity is becoming a metric of the same importance as power, speed, and area. Smaller feature sizes, low vo...
Due to shrinking technology, increasing functional frequency and density, and reduced noise margins with supply voltage scaling, the sensitivity of designs to supply voltage noise...
