In this paper, we propose a low-power testing methodology for the scan-based BIST. A smoother is included in the test pattern generator (TPG) to reduce average power consumption d...
— Delay failures are becoming a dominant failure mechanism in nanometer technologies. Diagnosis of such failures is important to ensure yield and robustness of the design. Howeve...
Diagnosing failing vectors in a Built-In Self Test (BIST) environment is a difficult task because of the highly compressed signature coming out of the Multiple Input Shift Regist...
In this paper, we propose a new transparent built-in self-test ( TBIST ) method to test multiple embedded memory arrays with various sizes in parallel. First, a new transparent tes...
— We examine an abstract formulation of BIST diagnosis in digital logic systems. The BIST diagnosis problem has applications that include identification of erroneous test vector...
