This paper discusses practical issues involved in applying logic built-in self-test (BIST) to four large industrial designs. These multi-clock designs, ranging in size from 200K to 800K gates, pose significant challenges to logic BIST methodology, flow, and tools. The paper presents the process of generating a BIST-compliant core along with the logic BIST controller for at-speed testing. Compar...

Built-In Self-Test for logic circuits or logic BIST is gaining popularity as an effective solution for the test cost, test quality, and test reuse problems. Logic BIST implements most of ATE functions on chip so that the test cost can be reduced through less test time, less tester memory requirement, or even a cheaper tester. Logic BIST applies a large number of test patterns so that more defec...

A new inter-core BIST circuits for tri-state buffers: T-BIST mainly consists of simple circuits distributed in the relevant blocks. It can give an excellent test-coverage with a little additional hardware. Its configuration is not specified by each SoC structure, so, it is suitable for a general/reusable testable IP.

purpose: the present paper aims to relate self-efficacy as an important psychological construct to information literacy as an essential requisite of the information society.methodology: reviewing related literature in communication, sociology, information science and computer science.findings: self-efficacy could increase interest, efforts, enjoy, self-regulation and performance. it is consider...

Many believe that in-field hardware faults are too rare in practice to justify the need for Logic Built-In Self-Test (LBIST) in a design. Until now, LBIST was primarily used in safety-critical applications. However, this may change soon. First, even if costly methods like burn-in are applied, it is no longer possible to get rid of all latent defects in devices at leadingedge technology. Second,...

humanizing language learning materials helps language teachers to design activities that are linked to learn- ers’ lives and experiences. this can result in higher motivation and engagement in the process of foreign language learning. self-determination theory-based instruction enhances learners’ engagement and motiva- tion through supporting the basic psychological needs for autonomy, competen...

1.1 1:30 p.m. "An Efficient Self-Test Structure for Sequential Machines" S.Z. Hassan Rolm Mil-Spec Computers In this paper, a BIST structure for sequential machines is presented. The approach requires augmentation of the machine by the addition of an extra input and some logic. The test sequence is independent of the function implemented and depends only on the number of input combinations and ...

In visual metaphor processing, one object, the target, is compared to and understood in terms of another object, the source. Several studies suggest that perceptual similarity between two objects enhances a conceptual link between the two. However, little is known about how perceptual features contribute to the establishment of this link. In the present experiment we investigated the processing...
