A technique is proposed to reduce the peak power consumption of sequential circuits during test pattern application. High-speed computation intensive VLSI systems, as telecommunica...
As semiconductor manufacturing technology advances, power dissipation and noise in scan testing has become a critical problem. In our studies on practical LSI manufacturing, we ha...
Abstract— For scan-based testing, the high test power consumption may cause test power management problems, and the extra scan chain connections may cause routability degradation...
Many STUMPS architectures found in current chip designs allow disabling of individual scan chains for debug and diagnosis. In a recent paper it has been shown that this feature can...
