A low power passive equalizer using RL terminator is proposed and optimized in this work. The equalizer includes an inductor in series with the resistive terminator, which boosts ...
Abstract. The general trend in semiconductor industry to separate design from fabrication leads to potential threats from untrusted integrated circuit foundries. In particular, mal...

In deep submicron VLSI circuits, interconnect reliability due to electromigration and thermal effects is fast becoming a serious design issue particularly for long signal lines. T...
Diagnostic ATPG has traditionally been used to generate test patterns that distinguish pairs of modeled faults. In this work, we investigate the use of n-distinguishing test sets,...
