This paper describes the testing of a chip especially designed to facilitate the evaluation of various test techniques for combinational circuitry. The different test sets and test conditions are described. Several tables show the results of voltage tests applied, either at rated speed or 2/3 speed, to each defective CUT. Data for Crosscheck, Very-Low-Voltage, IDDQ and delay tests are also given.
An experiment has been designed to evaluate multiple testing techniques for combinational circuits. To perform the experiment, a 25k gate CMOS Test Chip has been designed, manufactured (5491 devices), and evaluated with over 300 tests. The chip contains five types of CUTs derived from functions in production ASICs.
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.
