The use of a single pass/fail threshold for IDDQ testing is unworkable as chip background currents increase to the point where they exceed many defect currents. This paper describ...

Test application time is an important factor in the overall cost of VLSI chip testing. We present a new ATPG approach for generating compact test sequences for sequential circuits...

This paper presents two new algorithms, Redundant Vector Elimination(RVE) and Essential Fault Reduction (EFR), for generating compact test sets for combinational circuits under th...
We present a new dynamic probabilistic state exploration algorithm based on hash compaction. Our method has a low state omission probability and low memory usage that is independen...

The growing disparity between processor and memory speeds has caused memory bandwidth to become the performance bottleneck for many applications. In particular, this performance ga...
