Therefore, practical techniques, such as test compression and compaction, are required to reduce the amount of test data in order to reduce both the total testing time and the memory requirements for the tester Relaxing test sequences can improve the efficiency of both test compression and test compaction. In addition, the relaxation process can identify self-initializing test sequences for synchronous sequential circuits. In this paper we propose an efficient test relaxation technique for synchronous sequential circuits that maximizes the number of unspecified bits while maintaining the same fault coverage as the original test set.","PeriodicalId":292996,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 21st VLSI Test Symposium, 2003.","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134248206","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 small in comparison to the power consumption of today's VLSI circuits, if current trends continue this will be a critical issue in the near future. Reversible circuits offer an alternative that, in principle, allows computation with arbitrarily small energy dissipation. Furthermore, reversible circuits are essential components of quantum logic. We consider the problem of testing these circuits, and in particular generating efficient test sets. The reversibility property significantly simplifies the problem, which is generally hard for the irreversible case. We discuss conditions for a test set to be complete, give a number of practical constructions, and consider test sets for worst-case circuits. In addition, we formulate the problem of finding minimal test sets into an integer linear program (ILP) with binary variables. While this ILP method is infeasible for large circuits, we show that combining it with a circuit decomposition approach yields a practical alternative.","PeriodicalId":292996,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 21st VLSI Test Symposium, 2003.","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130407481","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 proposed method is based on the use of a small number of ATE channels to deliver compressed test patterns from the tester to the chip and to drive a large number of internal scan chains in the circuit under test. Therefore, it is especially suitable for a reduced pin-count and low-cost DFT test environment, where a narrow interface between the tester and the SOC is desirable. The dictionary-based approach not only reduces testing time but it also eliminates the need for additional synchronization and handshaking between the SOC and the ATE. The dictionary entries are determined during the compression procedure by solving a variant of the well-known clique partitioning problem from graph theory. Experimental results for the ISCAS-89 benchmarks and representative test data from IBM show that the proposed method outperforms a number of recently-proposed test data compression techniques.","PeriodicalId":292996,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 21st VLSI Test Symposium, 2003.","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121295637","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 seed size is determined by the maximum number of specified bits in a test pattern belonging to a given test set. However, for most practical designs the majority of test patterns have significantly fewer specified bits compared to the maximum. This limits the amount of compression that can be achieved with conventional reseeding. This paper presents a new reseeding technique that overcomes this problem by generating a single test pattern from multiple seeds and multiple test patterns from a single seed. The new reseeding technique is applied to two industrial designs, resulting in significant reduction in tester memory requirement and test application time compared to the conventional reseeding technique.","PeriodicalId":292996,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 21st VLSI Test Symposium, 2003.","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123518685","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 seed corresponds to the initial state of the LFSR before filling the scan chain. The number of deterministic seeds required is directly proportional to the tester storage or hardware overhead requirement. In this paper, we present an algorithm for seed ordering to minimize the number of seeds required to cover a set of deterministic test patterns. Our technique is applicable whether seeds are loaded from the tester or encoded on chip. Simulations show that, when compared to random ordering, the technique reduces seed storage or hardware overhead by up to 80%. The seeds we use are deterministic so 100% SSF fault coverage can be achieved. Also, the technique we present is fault-model independent.","PeriodicalId":292996,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 21st VLSI Test Symposium, 2003.","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125517911","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 this paper, we first discuss the problems in practical implementation of ECR tests on large-size circuits of advanced technology, e.g., increased circuit size and leakage current degrade ECR performance. We then propose two possible solutions: one is based on extensive statistical data analysis and another uses an enhanced scan design to partition the circuit.
