Analog and mixed-signal testing is becoming an important issue that affects both the time-to-market and the product cost of many SoCs. In order to provide an efficient testing method for 865-870 MHz Charge pump phase-locked loop (CP-PLL) which constitutes a mixed-signal circuit a novel BIST method is developed. This BIST can be easily implemented with a test stimulus generator circuit, all existing blocks in CP-PLL and fault evaluation circuit. In order to reduce the chip area overheard, this technique use a selection circuit and one delay cell. The simulation results of the novel technique show high fault coverage 100% like that of our previous testing methods. Thus, it provides an efficient structural test suitable for a production test in terms of an area overhead, a test accessibility, and test time.
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.
