In our previous paper we presented a methodology for generating functional tests aimed at hard to detect gate level faults in the control logic of a processor. In that methodology gate level tests were mapped to the register transfer level (RTL) and a faulty RTL model was built. The propagation constraints of the fault through the design were captured as linear temporal logic (LTL) properties. These constraints reduced the search space. Further, the constraints also allowed us to do structural reductions like cone of influence reduction and removal of irrelevant duplicated signals. Overall the constraints provided improved scaling. Not all the design behaviours are required to generate a test for a fault. In this paper we use this insight to scale our previous methodology further. Under-approximations are design abstractions that only capture a subset of the orignial design behaviors. The use of RTL for test generation affords us two types of under-approximations: bit-width reduction and operator approximation. Our experiments show that the use of these two under-approximations can achive 2× to 3× reduction in test generation time without compromising the fault coverage.","PeriodicalId":6379,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Test Conference (ITC)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86290500","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}

Counterfeiting includes re-labeling legitimate chips or illegitimately replicating chips and deceptively selling them as made by the legitimate manufacturer, or simply selling fake chips. Counterfeiting also includes providing defective parts or simply previously used parts recycled from scrapped assemblies. Obviously, there is a multitude of legal and financial implications involved in such activities and even if these devices initially work, they may have reduced lifetime and may pose reliability risks. In this tutorial, we provide a comprehensive review of existing techniques which seek to prevent and/or detect counterfeit integrated circuits. Various approaches are discussed and an advanced machine learning-based method employing parametric measurements is described in detail.","PeriodicalId":6379,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Test Conference (ITC)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89679582","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 key characteristic of the sensors is that they are non-intrusive, in the sense that they are not electrically connected to the RF circuit under test. This has the important advantage that the design of the RF circuit becomes totally independent from the design of the sensors. In other words, the RF circuit design methodology and performance trade-offs are totally transparent to the insertion of the built-in test strategy. In particular, we propose variation-aware sensors to implement an implicit functional test and a temperature sensor to implement a defect-oriented test. The proposed sensors provide DC or low-frequency measurements, thus they have the potential to reduce drastically the test cost. We discuss the principle of operation of the sensors, we provide design guidelines, and we demonstrate the concept on a set of fabricated chips. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first proof-of-concept of RF test based on non-intrusive sensors.","PeriodicalId":6379,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Test Conference (ITC)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77262055","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}

Some intervening steps are shown that achieved 5-10Gbps, and recently 12-24Gbps. These are extended to demonstrate synthesis of signals between 40 and 50Gbps.

However, test complexity and test cost are major concerns for 3D-SICs. Recent work on the optimization of 3D test architectures to reduce test cost suffer from the drawback that they ignore potential uncertainties in input parameters; they consider only a single point in the input-parameter space. In realistic scenarios, the assumed values for parameters such as test power and pattern count of logic cores, which are used for optimizing the test architecture for a die, may differ from the actual values that are known only after the design stage. In a 3D setting, a die can be used in multiple stacks each with different properties. As a result, the originally designed test architecture might no longer be optimal, which leads to an undesirable increase in the test cost. We propose an optimization approach that takes uncertainties in input parameters into account and provides a solution that is efficient in the presence of input-parameter variations. We use integer linear programming (ILP) to formulate the robust test-architecture optimization problem, and the resulting ILP model serves as the basis for a heuristic solution that scales well for large designs. The proposed optimization framework is evaluated using the ITC'02 SoC benchmarks and we show that robust solutions are superior to single-point solutions in terms of average test time when there are uncertainties in the values of input parameters.","PeriodicalId":6379,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Test Conference (ITC)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73291696","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}

Jitter Tolerance testing is a critical way to stress the SerDes receivers. A jitter free loopback test hardly represents the real application environment. We implemented a jitter injection technique to precisely injecting the amount of in-band and out-of-band jitter to effectively testing receiver clock and data recovery circuits (CDR). Because out-of-band jitter is more effective in stressing the CDR, it is critical to generate jitter frequency that is higher than the receiver CDR loop bandwidth. Both the jitter frequency and amplitude can be programmed digitally in this BIST implementation. And more importantly, it does NOT require any external instrument for calibration. As a result, overall production test coverage is enhanced without additional test cost and tester instrument calibration hardware.","PeriodicalId":6379,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Test Conference (ITC)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77117153","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 propose a methodology and supporting statistical regression tools that can exploit and utilize both spatial and inter-test-item correlations in the test data for test time and cost reduction. We first describe a statistical regression method, called group lasso, which can identify inter-test-item correlations from test data. After learning such correlations, some test items can be identified for removal from the test program without compromising test quality. An extended version of this method, weighted group lasso, allows taking into account the distinct test time/cost of each individual test item in the formulation as a weighted optimization problem. As a result, its solution would favor more costly test items for removal from the test program. We further integrate weighted group lasso with another statistical regression technique, virtual probe, which can learn spatial correlations of test data across a wafer. The integrated method could then utilize both spatial and inter-test-item correlations to maximize the number of test items whose values can be predicted without measurement. Experimental results of a high-volume industrial device show that utilizing both spatial and inter-test-item correlations can help reduce test time by up to 55%.","PeriodicalId":6379,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Test Conference (ITC)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84023943","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 solution applies asymmetric voltages for disturbance confinement, inserts redundancy for disturbance detection, and employs a refreshing mechanism to restore weakened data.
