Iddq Testability Analysis Using Random Test Vectors

چکیده
This paper reports an investigation of Iddq test coverage of randomly generated test vectors and Iddq fault coverage estimation based on a new testability measure. Experimental results show that Iddq random vectors are as efficient as deterministic vectors, and that the proposed testability measure is capable of accurately estimating fault coverage of Iddq test.

Fault Characterization, Testability Issue and Design for Testability of Complementary Pass Transistor Logic Circuits
Testability analysis of basic and complex logic gates employing complementary pass transistor logic (CPL) under various single stuck faults is investigated. Results show that all stuck-on faults, bridging faults and more than 90% stuck-at faults in the basic CPL gates are only detectable by current monitoring generally known as IDDQ testing. It is also shown that all stuck-open faults in the ba...

متن کاملIDDQ Testing of Bridging Faults in Logic Resources of Reconfigurable Field Programmable Gate Arrays
This paper presents an IDDQ-based test strategy for detecting bridging faults in the logic resources of reprogrammable Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). The proposed approach utilizes the programmability of the Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs) to achieve 100 percent coverage of IDDQ-testable bridging faults. We use a hieararchical approach for generating tests and configurations. At the c...
متن کاملA High Performance IDDQ Testable Cache for Scaled CMOS Technologies
Quiescent supply current (IDDQ) testing is a useful test method for static CMOS RAM and can be combined with functional testing to reduce total test time and to increase reliability. However the sensitivity of IDDQ testing deteriorates significantly with technology scaling as intrinsic leakage of CMOS circuits increases. In this paper, we use a design technique for high-performance cache, which...
متن کاملA Theory of Testability with Application to Fault Coverage Analysis
When test vectors are applied to a circuit, the fault coverage increases. The rate of increase, however, could be circuit-dependent. In fact, the actual rise of fault coverage depends on the characteristics of vectors, as well as, on the circuit. The paper shows that the average fault coverage can be computed kom circuit testability. A relationship between fault coverage and circuit testability...
