The scope and need for scan based transition tests in the context of high volume manufacturing testing of microprocessors is discussed. A classification of transition faults for latch based design is presented. Finally, we discuss a silicon experiment to understand the most fundamental issue of scan based transition testing viz. their robustness.
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.
