Reseeding is used to improve fault coverage in pseudo-random testing. Most of the work done on reseeding is based on storing the seeds in an external tester. Besides its high cost...
The combination of higher quality requirements and sensitivity of high performance circuits to delay defects has led to an increasing emphasis on delay testing of VLSI circuits. A...

In this paper a new scheme for deterministic and mixed mode scan-based BIST is presented. It relies on a new type of test pattern generator which resembles a programmable Johnson ...
Due to the rapidly growing speed and the decreasing size of gates in modern chips, the probability of faults caused by the production process grows. Already small variations lead ...
With increasing process variation, binning has become an important technique to improve the values of fabricated chips, especially in high performance microprocessors where transpa...
