Success in the electronics business hinges on producing high-quality products and using the most cost-effective methods to do so. As the number of devices on ICs continues to double every 18 to 24 ...
Design for test (DFT) has been around since the 1960s. The technology was developed to reduce the cost of creating a successful test for an IC. Scan design, fault models, and automatic test pattern ...
Two test strategies are used to test virtually all IC logic: automatic test pattern generation (ATPG) with test pattern compression and logic built-in self-test (BIST). This article will describe how ...
Two test strategies are used to test virtually all IC logic—automatic test pattern generation (ATPG) with test pattern compression, and logic built-in self-test (BIST). For many years, there was a ...
As chips get ever bigger and more complex, the electronic design automation (EDA) industry must innovate constantly to keep up. Engineers expect every new generation of silicon to be modeled, ...
