Under the condition of Built-off Self-test (BOST), a novel test data compression scheme based on position information coding is presented, which is targeting test data and test power consumption. The proposed scheme gets the next test stimuli by reversing some bits of the responses corresponding to the previous test vectors. During the process of bit flip, test power problem should be taken into account; both the shift power and capture power during the test should be limited in the scope of security. For shift power, need to modify the scan chain by adding blocking logic; and the capture power reduction through the test cube filling based on the response. Experimental results justify the efficacy of the proposed method in attaining test-data compression; the average compression ratio is 73.63% on the premise of capture power consumption reduced by 20%.
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.
