Optimized Statistical Analog Fault Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new statistical method for analog fault simulation is presented. The method takes into account process parameter variations and aims to reduce the number of the computational expensive Monte Carlo simulations often required during analog fault simulation. The technique is illustrated by means of a fifth-order low-pass switched-capacitor filter.

Look up Table Based Low Power Analog Circuit Testing
In this paper, a method of low power analog testing is proposed. In spite of having Oscillation Based Built in Self-Test methodology (OBIST), a look up table based (LUT) low power testing approach has been proposed to find out the faulty circuit and also to sort out the particular fault location in the circuit. In this paper an operational amplifier, which is the basic building block in the ana...
متن کاملA Performance Evaluation of Oscillation Based Test in Continuous Time Filters
This work evaluates the ability of OBT for detecting parametric faults in continuous-time filters. To this end, we adopt two filters with quite different topologies as cases of study and a previously reported statistical fault model. In addition, we explore the behavior of the test schemes when a particular test condition is changed. The new data reported here, obtained from a fault simulation ...
متن کاملAnalog Fault Detection based on Statistical Analysis
In analog circuits, process variations result in physical parameter variations. Simulated values must then be considered with there tolerance intervals. Consequently, contrarily to digital circuits where the outputs are either '0' or '1' such that we can decide without ambiguity whether a fault is detectable or not, for analog circuits the fault detectability is a vague problem as the fault can...
