It is increasingly difficult to guarantee the first silicon success for complex integrated circuit (IC) designs. Post-silicon validation has thus become an essential step in the I...
Trace buffer technology allows tracking the values of a few number of state elements inside a chip within a desired time window, which is used to analyze logic errors during post-s...
Post-silicon validation has become an essential step in the design flow of today's complex integrated circuits. One effective technique that provides real-time visibility to ...
Scan chain defect diagnosis is important to silicon debug and yield enhancement. Traditional simulationbased chain diagnosis algorithms may take long run time if a large number of...
Abstract—Addressing both standby and active power is a major challenge in developing System-on-Chip designs for batterypowered products. Powering off sections of logic or memorie...
