As the VLSI technology scales towards the nanometer regime, circuit performance is increasingly affected by variations. These variations need to be considered at an early stage in...
We introduce a novel method of test generation for microprocessors at the RTL using spectral methods. Test vectors are generated for RTL faults, which are the stuck-at faults on i...
The robustness of engines for ATPG has to be improved to cope with the growing size of circuits. Recently, SAT-based ATPG approaches have been shown to be very robust even on larg...
State-of-the-art FPGA architectures have millions of gates in CLBs, Block RAMs, and Multiplier blocks which can host fairly large designs. While their physical design calls for oor...
This paper proposes a data encoder to reduce switched capacitance on system bus. Our method focuses on transferring raw video data (pixels) between off-chip memory and on-chip mem...
