Abstract:Aggressive technology scaling in modern chips resulted in complicated faulty timing behaviors, which necessitate undesirable long development cycle and high test volumes to ensure product quality. To reduce the test time, cost-effective and timing-efficient test selection algorithms are used to choose optimal test inputs from a large-volume test set. In this paper, we define an approximate longest sensitized path (ALSP) metric to derive the longest sensitized path for all transition faults (TFs) from the detec… 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.
