Abstract:An approach capable of identifying the locations of distributed small delay defects, arising due to manufacturing aberrations, is proposed. It is shown that the proposed formulation can be transformed into a Boolean Satisfiability form to be solved by any SAT solver. The approach is capable of providing a small number of alternative sets of potential defective segments, and one of the solutions is the actual defect configuration. This is shown to be a very important property towards the effective identificatio… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
