Memory cores usually occupy a significant portion of the chip area, and dominate the manufacturing yield of the chip. Efficient yield-enhancement techniques for embedded memories thus are important for SOC. In this paper we present a built-in self-repair (BISR) scheme for semiconductor memories with 2-D redundancy structures. The BISR design is composed of a built-in self-test (BIST) module and a built-in redundancy analysis (BIRA) module. Our BIST circuit supports three test modes: the 1) main memory testing, 2) spare memory testing, and 3) repair modes. The BIRA module executes the proposed redundancy analysis (RA) algorithm for RAM with a 2-D redundancy structure, i.e., spare rows and spare columns. The BIRA module also serves as the reconfiguration (address remapping) unit in the normal mode. Experimental results show that a high repair rate (i.e., the ratio of the number of repaired memories to the number of defective memories) is achieved with the proposed RA algorithm and BISR scheme. The BISR circuit has a low area overhead—about 4.6% for an 8K 64 SRAM.","PeriodicalId":236182,"journal":{"name":"International Test Conference, 2003. Proceedings.

In this paper we first study the reason for strong correlation between Iddq currents for different test vectors, then build a model to estimate the correlation. Based on this model, we propose three test vector selection methods to improve the fault detection ability of ratio-Iddq testing by selecting test vector pairs with the highest correlation. Hspice simulation showed that the fault detection ability can be improved by as much as an order of magnitude. We also describe a test vector partitioning technique to increase the correlation between Iddq currents of different test vectors.","PeriodicalId":236182,"journal":{"name":"International Test Conference, 2003.

The key idea is to exploit the asymmetric soft error susceptibility of nodes in a logic circuit. Rather than target all modeled faults, CED is targeted towards the nodes that have the highest soft error susceptibility to achieve cost-effective tradeoffs between overhead and reduction in the soft error failure rate. Under this new paradigm, we present one particular approach that is based on partial duplication and show that it is capable of reducing the soft error failure rate significantly with a fraction of the overhead required for full duplication. A procedure for characterizing the soft error susceptibility of nodes in a logic circuit, and a heuristic procedure for selecting the set of nodes for partial duplication are described. A full set of experimental results demonstrate the cost-effective tradeoffs that can be achieved.","PeriodicalId":236182,"journal":{"name":"International Test Conference, 2003. Proceedings.

From a testing point of view, bus-structured systems require more complicated consideration than simple wiring networks since a bus line receives data from many drivers. Therefore, some faults are detected all the time and others are detected only at a particular time. We propose a new interconnect test algorithm for bus structures. The MD+ algorithm supports maximal diagnosis for the bus-structured system and its test period is shorter than the previous algorithms. Moreover, the MD+ algorithm is easy to apply since it is based on a complete diagnosis algorithm for wiring networks. The effectiveness of the MD+ algorithm is confirmed by comparing the test length with previous bus-based interconnect test algorithms.","PeriodicalId":236182,"journal":{"name":"International Test Conference, 2003.

Conventional FA based on bitmaps and the experiences of the FA engineer is time consuming and error prone. The increasing time-to-volume pressure on semiconductor products calls for new development flow that enables the product to reach a profitable yield level as soon as possible. Demand in methodologies that allow FA automation thus increases rapidly in recent years. This paper proposes a systematic diagnosis approach based on failure patterns and functional fault models of semiconductor memories. By circuit-level simulation and analysis, we have also developed a fault pattern generator. Defect diagnosis and FA can be performed automatically by using the fault patterns, reducing the time in yield improvement. The main contribution of the paper is thus a methodology and procedure for accelerating FA and yield optimization for semiconductor memories.","PeriodicalId":236182,"journal":{"name":"International Test Conference, 2003.

In this paper, the details of the study on the Rapid Single-Flux Quantum (RSFQ) process are presented.

However, at smaller geometries, process-design interactions are causing design marginality and reliability failures. This paper argues that systematic application of DFM techniques is needed in fabless companies to reduce such (potentially catastrophic} failures. As IC manufacturing technology shifts to 0.13um and below, process-design interactions are becoming very complex. On-chip process variations, pattem-dependent failures, increased via failure rate, etc. are making it harder to separate the process from design using \"simplified\" design rules. In addition, process ramps have become longer, forcing designs into not-so-stable processes. Such a paradigm is new for engineers in fabless companies, who have traditionally been isolated from the process through the interface of design rules and process comers. As a result, an increasing number of SoCs are being designed by fabless companies without understanding the process-design interaction, resulting in","PeriodicalId":236182,"journal":{"name":"International Test Conference, 2003.

At the same time, due to small and subtle defects, devices are more likely to marginally violate performance specifications under scaled technologies. Like the signal lines, clock lines are also becoming more susceptible to variations and defects. For timing verification, such trends invalidate traditional, static (i.e. vector-less) timing verification paradigms and create a demand for dynamic solutions that would require carefully crafted test vectors for accurate timing simulation. For delay testing, we need test vectors that can exercise various worst-case timing scenarios to screen out devices with parametric variations and small timing defects. To reduce the overall costs and effort involved in design and test, we need to develop models, tools, and methodologies that can generate high quality, cost-effective test vectors that serve both applications [1].","PeriodicalId":236182,"journal":{"name":"International Test Conference, 2003.
