However, as many designers are well aware, there exist various different and mostly diverse asynchronous design methodologies. In order to obtain a highly optimized circuit implementation, it is often necessary to mix different techniques for exploiting their specific benefits. Consequently, the need for efficient conversion and interfacing techniques between these design methodologies arises. In this paper we take a closer look on how such conversion blocks can be built efficiently. We elaborate implementations for signal conversion between three distinct asynchronous design alternatives, discuss their benefits and drawbacks, and provide simulation results. We not only consider cases where both sender and receiver use handshaking protocols for flow control, but also the situation where this kind of lockstep operation is not possible.","PeriodicalId":231389,"journal":{"name":"14th IEEE International Symposium on Design and Diagnostics of Electronic Circuits and Systems","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114955160","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}

In the existing literature, it has been shown that excessive power supply noise can affect the path delay, while ground bounce is either neglected or assumed similar to power supply noise. In this work, we present a detailed study of combined and uncorrelated power supply noise and ground bounce and their impact on the path delay. Our analyses show that different combination of power supply noise and ground bounce can lead to either delay speed-up or slow-down. Furthermore, our study shows the degrading influence of supply noise resonance on the path delay. We perform HSPICE simulations for path delay analysis on various technology nodes i.e. 130nm, 90nm, 65nm and 45nm","PeriodicalId":231389,"journal":{"name":"14th IEEE International Symposium on Design and Diagnostics of Electronic Circuits and Systems","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114971155","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}

While conventional wisdom suggests that it is optimal to detect a delay defect through the longest sensitisable path, non-trivial defect behaviour along with modelling inaccuracies necessitate consideration of paths of well-controlled length during test generation. We present a generic methodology that yields tests through all sensitisable paths of user-specified length. The resulting tests can be employed within the framework of adaptive testing. The methodology is based on encoding the problem as a Boolean-satisfiability (SAT) instance and thereby leverages recent advances in SAT-solving technology.","PeriodicalId":231389,"journal":{"name":"14th IEEE International Symposium on Design and Diagnostics of Electronic Circuits and Systems","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122025321","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}

Recently, VLIW processors became more and more suitable to be employed in various embedded processing systems including safety critical applications such as aerospace, automotive and rail transport. Therefore, techniques to effectively estimate and improve the reliability of VLIW processor are of great interest. Terrestrial safety-critical applications based on newer nano-scale technologies raise increasing concerns about transient errors induced by neutrons. In this paper, we analyze the cross-domain failures affecting redundant mitigation techniques implemented on a statistically scheduled data path VLIW processor and we describe a fault injection analysis of transient faults affecting the r-VEX VLIW processor implemented on an FPGA platform. For a large set of benchmark applications, figures of application performances and errors analysis are provided and commented.","PeriodicalId":231389,"journal":{"name":"14th IEEE International Symposium on Design and Diagnostics of Electronic Circuits and Systems","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130956801","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}

SRAM testing is mainly based on the concept of fault model used to mimic faulty behaviors. Traditionally, the effects of bit line coupling capacitances have not been considered during the fault analysis. However, recent works show the increasing impact of bit line coupling capacitances on the SRAM behavior. This paper reviews and discusses preview works addressing the issues coming from bit line parasitic capacitances and data contents on SRAM testing, pointing out the impacts of these effects on the existing test solutions. Then, we introduce two optimizations of the state-of-the-art test solution able to take into account the influence of bit line coupling capacitances while reducing the test length of about 60% and 80%, respectively.","PeriodicalId":231389,"journal":{"name":"14th IEEE International Symposium on Design and Diagnostics of Electronic Circuits and Systems","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130995544","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}

In particular, Transaction Level Modeling (TLM) is the major reason for the success of ESL design. However, when detailed protocols are modeled at lower levels of TLM, the verification of the communication becomes a critical issue. In this paper, we present an approach for protocol compliance checking of new or detailed protocol implementations. They are checked against user-specified protocol sequences. We also analyze the protocol coverage achieved by the testbench and visualize the results on a protocol sequence graph.
