However, scan techniques are not universally accepted by circuit designers because of the various overheads involved, such as chip area, performance, I/O pin count and test application time. The authors present a multi-facet scan design system called SIESTA that attempts to find solutions that satisfy designer goals and constraints. SIESTA incorporates a range of methodologies and optimization techniques that deal with the issues of partial scan, circuit partitioning, test application and scan path chaining. It employs several new concepts that do not exist in other scan design systems.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":218056,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings EURO-DAC '92: European Design Automation Conference","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114905686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This technique is exact, requiring no simplification of the line's internal mechanism. It is shown that though the impulse responses of uniform RC lines are ill-behaved and unsuitable for direct numerical implementation, the use of a convolutional formula obtained by generalizing the trapezoidal integration method leads to well-behaved analytic forms that can be directly implemented. The new technique makes no approximation to the uniform distribution of resistance and capacitance. Experimental results using industrial IC interconnect demonstrate the efficacy of the new technique.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":218056,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings EURO-DAC '92: European Design Automation Conference","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114297757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach combines behavioral, functional, and data-oriented specifications based on formal languages, as well as knowledge-based concepts for the acquisition of a complete description of the goals, requirements, and constraints related to a system design project. Within this environment, existing commercial specification and system design tools have been integrated into a CAE framework and new tools have been developed to support early requirement definition, specification flow control, early validation of specification, and specification data management.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":218056,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings EURO-DAC '92: European Design Automation Conference","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116859009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The LFSR is modified such that there exists a feedback from the outputs of a circuit under test to the LSFR. This modification is intended for amplifying the effect of a fault near a primary output on the dynamic current. In order to distinguish the dynamic current of a faulty circuit from the one of a fault-free circuit, two methods are discussed. One is the method where the waveform of the dynamic current is recognized using a neural network, and the other is the method where the mean dynamic current is calculated. Simulation results show that a high fault coverage can be obtained using a small number of test vectors.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":218056,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings EURO-DAC '92: European Design Automation Conference","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127026810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The feasibility of converting even large existing software systems for at least partial parallel execution is demonstrated. With a suitable set of tools the amount of changes which are needed is small. Despite the limited bandwidth of an Ethernet network, a set of networked computers can be used as an efficient parallel processor for some of the problems in electronic design automation.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":218056,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings EURO-DAC '92: European Design Automation Conference","volume":"146 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129072651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The efforts of the group have been divided into four different areas: logic type, representation of numeric types, specification of constraints, and special identifications. Each of these areas addresses an important part of the information required for synthesis of a VHDL model. An important decision of the group was to adopt the std logic type defined in the IEEE std logic 1164 package. The numeric types area was created in order to provide arithmetic capabilities based on the std logic value. The constraints area addresses design information beyond the functionality of the design that is still part of the specification. The special identifications area is a catch-all area for additional information about a design that may be useful to different aspects of the synthesis process.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":218056,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings EURO-DAC '92: European Design Automation Conference","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114316338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a greedy algorithm to generate the initial solution and then applying a series of transformations to the graph is shown to be effective in obtaining optimal and near optimal results without resorting to an exhaustive search. The algorithm handles multicycle pipelined functional units leading to the generation of compact schedules. Using pipelined functional units, the effective throughput is increased and shorter latency times are produced. Thus, in the case of the optimized finite impulse response (FIR) filter, a throughput of three clock cycles, with a latency of nine clock cycles can be obtained using a functional unit specification of five one-cycle adders and three two-cycle pipelined multipliers. In this case the throughput is doubled, and the latency is improved by 33% using pipelined units over non-pipelined units.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":218056,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings EURO-DAC '92: European Design Automation Conference","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114321126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
