Testing High-Speed SoCs Using Low-Speed ATEs
We present a test methodology to allow testing high-speed circuits with low-speed ATEs. The basic strategy is adding an interface circuit to partially supply test data, coordinate...

Self-Testing Second-Order Delta-Sigma Modulators Using Digital Stimulus
Single-bit second-order delta-sigma modulators are commonly used in high-resolution ADCs. Testing this type of modulator requires a high-resolution test stimulus, which is diffic...

On Using Rectangle Packing for SOC Wrapper/TAM Co-Optimization
The testing time for a system-on-chip (SOC) is determined to a large extent by the design of test wrappers and the test access mechanism (TAM). Wrapper/TAM co-optimization is ther...
