Such procedures are used to reduce the lengths of test sequences for synchronous sequential circuits without reducing the fault coverage. The unique feature of the proposed approach is that test vectors omitted from the test sequence can be reintroduced at a later time. Reintroducing vectors helps to reduce the compacted test sequence length beyond the length that can be achieved if vectors are omitted permanently. Experimental results are presented to demonstrate the levels of compaction achieved by the sequence counting approach.","PeriodicalId":6414,"journal":{"name":"1999 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

SAT based ATPG using fast justification and propagation in the implication graph 基于SAT的ATPG,在蕴涵图中使用快速证明和传播

{"title":"SAT based ATPG using fast justification and propagation in the implication graph","authors":"P. Tafertshofer, A. Ganz","doi":"10.1109/ICCAD.1999.810638","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ICCAD.1999.810638","url":null,"abstract":"In this paper we present new methods for fast justification and propagation in the implication graph (IG) which is the core data structure of our SAT based implication engine. As the IG model represents all information on the implemented logic function as well as the topology of a circuit, the proposed techniques inherit all advantages of both general SAT based and structure based approaches to justification, propagation, and implication. These three fundamental Boolean problems are the main tasks to be performed during automatic test pattern generation (ATPG) such that the proposed algorithms are incorporated into our ATPG tool TIP which is built on top of the implication engine. Working exclusively in the IG, the complex functional operations of justification, propagation, and implication reduce to significantly simpler graph algorithms. They are easily extended to exploit bit-parallel techniques. As the IG is automatically generated for arbitrary logics the algorithms remain applicable independent of the required logic. This allows processing of various fault models using the same engine. That is, the presented IG based methods offer a complete and versatile framework for rapid development of new ATPG tools that target emerging fault models such as crosstalk, delay or bridging faults. TIP currently handles stuck-at as well as various delay fault models. Furthermore, the proposed methods are used within tools for Boolean equivalence checking, optimization of netlists, timing analysis or retiming (reset state computation).","PeriodicalId":6414,"journal":{"name":"1999 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

The process consists of two phases. First, a compact signature is generated from every block independently and made public. Utilizing such signatures, a design can be decomposed into its original building blocks, regardless of multiple hierarchies. Then, a map of all the blocks can be built, thus allowing to reconstruct the original copyright dependencies. The proposed methodology can be used by foundries to verify that designs submitted for fabrication contain blocks traceable to a legal source of intellectual property. The verification process is also useful to intellectual property providers and integrators, as it reduces the likelihood of infringement, thus ultimately minimizing the risk of litigation.","PeriodicalId":6414,"journal":{"name":"1999 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

Direct synthesis of timed asynchronous circuits 定时异步电路的直接合成

The synthesis procedure begins with a deterministic graph specification with timing constraints. A timing analysis extracts the timed concurrency and timed causality relations between any two signal transitions. Then, a hazard-free implementation of the specification is synthesized by analyzing precedence graphs which are constructed by using the timed concurrency and timed causality relations. The major result of this work is that the method does not suffer from the state explosion problem, achieves significant reductions in synthesis time, and generates synthesized circuits that have nearly the same area as compared to previous timed circuit methods. In particular, this paper shows that a timed circuit-not containing circuit hazards under given timing constraints-can be found by using the relations between signal transitions of the specification. Moreover, the relations can be efficiently found using a heuristic timing analysis algorithm. By allowing significantly larger designs to be synthesized, this work is a step towards the development of high-level synthesis tools for system level asynchronous circuits.","PeriodicalId":6414,"journal":{"name":"1999 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

These approaches are also applicable to IIR filters. Two ideas are presented. First, we remove the redundant computation by using a graph-theoretic framework in which we find the optimal re-ordering of computations for maximal computation sharing. Second, we present the novel approach of searching for a quantization which improves the computation sharing when the frequency-domain transfer function is allowed to deviate within given bounds. A simple search scheme is presented and it is shown that, by appropriate perturbation of the filter coefficients, one can dramatically reduce the number of adders required in the filter implementation. Using these approaches, on an average, less than one adder per coefficient is required, in contrast to a full-width multiplier. Hence, the presented methodologies are a useful compliment to the existing design approaches of high-performance and low-power digital filters for future mobile computing and communication systems.","PeriodicalId":6414,"journal":{"name":"1999 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

Efficient manipulation algorithms for linearly transformed BDDs 线性变换bdd的有效操作算法

Linear transformations (LTs) have been proposed as a new concept to minimize the size of BDDs, and it is known that, in some cases, even an exponential reduction can be obtained. In addition to a small representation, the efficient manipulation of a data structure is also important. In this paper, we present polynomial-time manipulation algorithms that can be used for linearly transformed BDDs (LT-BDDs) analogously to BDDs. For some operations, like synthesis algorithms based on ITE (if-then-else), it turns out that the techniques known from BDDs can be directly transferred, while for other operations, like quantification and cofactor computation, completely different algorithms have to be used. Experimental results are given to show the efficiency of the approach.","PeriodicalId":6414,"journal":{"name":"1999 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.

In this paper, we explore power optimization with dual supply voltages under given timing constraints. By analyzing the relations among the timing slack, delay and power consumption in a given circuit, we relate the voltage-scaling power optimization to the maximal weighted independent set (MWIS) problem, which is polynomial-time solvable on a transitive graph. Then we develop a provably good lower-bound algorithm based on MWIS to generate the lower bound of the power consumption. Also, we propose a fast approach to predict the optimum supply voltages. The maximum power reduction is obtained by using a modified lower-bound algorithm with optimum voltages. Experimental results show that the resulting lower bound is tight for most circuits and that the estimated optimum supply voltage is exactly, or very close to, the best choice of actual voltages.","PeriodicalId":6414,"journal":{"name":"1999 IEEE/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design.
