BANKALARIN BAKIŞ AÇISINDAN BIST SINAİ İŞLETMELERİNİN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ – SWARA-GİA BÜTÜNLEŞİK YAKLAŞIMI

Raga Identification by using Swara Intonation

In this paper we investigate information pertaining to the intonation of swaras (scale-degrees) in Hindustani Classical Music for automatically identifying ragas. We briefly explain why raga identification is an interesting problem and the various attributes that characterize a raga. We look at two approaches by other authors that exploit some of these characteristics. Then we review musicologi...

Memory BIST

Power Conscious BIST Approaches

The System-On-Chip (SOC) revolution has brought some new challenges to both design and test engineers. The most important challenges of today’s VLSI systems testing are linked to test cost, defect coverage and power dissipation. Implementing a self-testable system may reduce test costs as expensive external high performance test equipment is not required and it may increase defect coverage as t...

Accumulator based deterministic BIST

Most built-in self test (BIST) solutions require specialized test pattern generation hardware which may introduce significant area overhead and performance degradation. Recently, some authors proposed test pattern generation on chip by means of functional units also used in system mode like adders or multipliers. These schemes generate pseudo-random or pseudo-exhaustive patterns for serial or p...

Stop & Go BIST

A BIST method enabling two-pattern testing at-speed without violating thermal constraints by introducing cool down periods is proposed. The application of the method is demonstrated based on a scalable BIST architecture. Applicability on IP cores is given since only a two-pattern test set is required as input.
