Conventional error correcting code (ECC) schemes used in memories and caches cannot correct double bit errors caused by a single event upset (SEU). As memory density increases, mu...
When a test set size is larger than desired, some patterns must be dropped. This paper presents a systematic method to reduce test set size; the method reorders a test set using t...
In this paper, a novel test point insertion methodology is presented for RTL designs that aims to reduce the data volume of scan-based transition delay tests. Test points are iden...
: Soft faults in DRAMs are faults that do not get sensitized directly after an operation is performed, but require a time to pass before the fault can be detected. Tests developed ...
The sensitivity of very deep submicron designs to supply voltage noise is increasing due to higher path delay variations and reduced noise margins with supply noise scaling. The s...
