Automated data analysis solutions to silicon debug
Since pre-silicon functional verification is insufficient to detect all design errors, re-spins are often needed due to malfunctions that escape into the silicon. This paper pre...

On Signal Tracing for Debugging Speedpath-Related Electrical Errors in Post-Silicon Validation
One of the most challenging problems in post-silicon validation is to identify those errors that cause prohibitive extra delay on speedpaths in the circuit under debug (CUD) and o...
