Previous researchers have suggested the use of “lighthouses” to act as guides in directed state space search. The drawback of using lighthouses is that the user has to manuall...
In this paper, a new built-in self-test structure to test the static specifications of analog to digital converters (ADCs) is presented. A ramp signal generated by an integrator ...
Very low bit error rate has become an important constraint in high performance communication systems that operate at very low signal to noise ratios: due to their impressive codin...

This paper gives an overview of the different tools, needed for accomplishing optimal IC manufacturability and rapid technology learning during the successive phases of process ma...
In [1], Murata et al introduced an elegant representation of block placement called sequence pair. All block placement algorithms which are based on sequence pairs use simulated a...
In this paper, an analysis of test time by CBET (which is an acronym for Combination of BIST and External Test) test approach is presented. The analysis validates that CBET test a...
This paper proposes an all digital on-chip bus delay and crosstalk measurement methodology. A diagnosis procedure is derived to distinguish the delay faults in drivers, receivers,...
