Defect Localization Using Physical Design and Electrical Test Information
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work we describe an approach of using physical design and test failure knowledge to localize defects in random logic. We term this approach computer-aided fault to defect mapping (CAFDM). An integrated tool has been developed on top of an existing commercial ATPG tool. CAFDM was able to correctly identify the defect location and layer in all 9 of the chips that had bridging faults injected via FIB. Preliminary failure analysis results on production defects are promising.

An Overview of CMOS VLSI Failure Analysis and the Importance of Test and Diagnostics
This paper reviews the logic failure analysis process and the critical need for design-fordiagnostics. The use of flip-chip packaging will render hardware-based diagnostic techniques from the front side of the die obsolete, e.g., liquid crystal, electron beam testing, and photon emission microscopy. Two primary solutions are discussed: software-based diagnostic methods, e.g., scan, and the adap...
متن کاملOptimizing the Event-based Method of Localization in Wireless Sensor Networks
A Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a wireless decentralized structure network consists of many nodes. Nodes can be fixed or mobile. WSN applications typically observe some physical phenomenon through sampling of the environment so determine the location of events is an important issue in WSN. Wireless Localization used to determine the position of nodes. The precise localization in WSNs is a co...
