A practical supply current test method is proposed and the experimental evaluation results are presented. In the method, the unit-to-unit variation of electrical characteristics in each logic gate is modeled as a Gaussian distribution and faults are detected with a statistical hypothesis technique.
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.
