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...
The custom testability strategy of the Alpha 21364, Hewlett-Packard’s most recent Alpha microprocessor, builds upon its Alpha 21264 embedded core. Several additional DFT feature...

In SoC designs, limited test access to internal cores, lowcost external tester’s lack of accuracy and slow frequencies make application of at-speed tests impractical. Therefore,...
Embedded systems in safety-critical environments demand safety guarantees while providing many useful services that are too complex to formally verify or fully test. Existing appl...

Functional verification is widely acknowledged as a major bottleneck in microprocessor design. While early work on specification driven functional test program generation has prop...
