When testing delay faults on critical paths, conventional structural test patterns may be applied in functionally-unreachable states, leading to over-testing or under-testing of t...
Circuit activity is a function of input patterns. When circuit activity changes abruptly, it can cause sudden drop or rise in power supply voltage. This change is known as power d...

Due to shrinking technology, increasing functional frequency and density, and reduced noise margins with supply voltage scaling, the sensitivity of designs to supply voltage noise...
-- The importance of within-die process variation and its impact on product yield has increased significantly with scaling. Within-die variation is typically monitored by embedding...
