The state of VLSI testing - IEEE Potentials

چکیده
ment in electronic systems has, in large part, the advances in Very Large Scale of Integration (VLSI) semiconductor technologies to thank. Performance, area, power and testing are some of the most important improvements. With the reduction in device sizes, it is becoming possible to fit increasingly larger number of transistors onto a single chip. However, as chip density increases, the probability of defects occurring in a chip increases as well. Thus, the quality, reliability and cost of the product are directly related to the intensity/level of testing of the product. As a result, gradually, Integrated Circuits (ICs) testing has shifted from the final fabricated ICs to the design stage. In this context, many Design For Testability (DFT) techniques have been developed to ease the testing process.

Fuzzy-based CMOS circuit partitioning in built-in current testing
We propose a fuzzy-based approach which provides a soft threshold to determine the module size for CMOS circuit partitioning in built-in current testing (BICT). Experimental results show that our design approach indeed provides a feasible way to exploit the design space of BICT partitioning in comparison with other approaches with a fixed threshold, and a better module size can thus be determin...

متن کاملAn Effective Attack-Resilient Kalman Filter-Based Approach for Dynamic State Estimation of Synchronous Machine
Kalman filtering has been widely considered for dynamic state estimation in smart grids. Despite its unique merits, the Kalman Filter (KF)-based dynamic state estimation can be undesirably influenced by cyber adversarial attacks that can potentially be launched against the communication links in the Cyber-Physical System (CPS). To enhance the security of KF-based state estimation, in this paper...
متن کاملTestability analysis and behavioral testing of the Hopfield neural paradigm
Testability analysis and test pattern generation for neural architectures can be performed at a very high abstraction level on the computational paradigm. In this paper, we consider the case of Hopfield’s networks, as the simplest example of networks with feedback loops. A behavioral error model based on Finite State Machines is introduced for this neural paradigm, to allow for a good represent...
