In this paper, new and efficient BIST methodology and BIST hardware insertion algorithms are presented for RTL data paths obtained from high level synthesis. The methodology is ba...
A deterministic BIST scheme is presented which requires less hardware overhead than pseudo-random BIST but obtains better or even complete fault coverage at the same time. It take...
Abstract--We present a processor-programmable built-in selftest (BIST) scheme suitable for embedded memory testing in the system-on-a-chip (SOC) environment. The proposed BIST circ...
Existing built-in self test (BIST) strategies require the use of specialized test pattern generation hardware which introduces signicant area overhead and performance degradation...
During built-in self-test (BIST), the set of patterns generated by a pseudo-random pattern generator may not provide a sufficiently high fault coverage. This paper presents a new ...
