Test Time versus Design-for-Test Resources in Mixed Signal Systems
Functional macro testing of analog subsystems is providing a reasonable approach to testing in mixed signal systems. This allows the partitioning of the analog from digital components. Two approaches emerge: analog test bus and Built-In-Self-Test (BIST). Design-for-Test (DFT) issues arise in both approaches which include additional circuitry for control and observation. This additional circuit ...
متن کاملA Mixed-signal Built-in Self-test Approach for Analog Circuits
A Built-In Self-Test (BIST) approach is described which is designed to test the analog portion of mixed-signal integrated circuits and systems. The BIST circuitry is located in the digital portion of the mixed-signal circuitry to minimize area overhead and effects on the analog portion of the mixed-signal system. The approach was evaluated using benchmark circuits for analog testing and found t...
متن کاملAn Automated BIST Approach for Mixed-Signal Systems
A Built-In Self-Test (BIST) approach that is designed to test the analog portion of mixed-signal systems is described. The majority of the BIST circuitry is located in the digital domain to minimize performance impact on the analog circuitry as well as to facilitate easy and automated synthesis of the BIST circuitry. The BIST approach has been implemented in parameterized VHDL for inclusion in ...
متن کاملLow Power March Memory Test Algorithm for Static Random Access Memories (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Memories are most important building blocks in many digital systems. As the Integrated Circuits requirements are growing, the test circuitry must grow as well. There is a need for more efficient test techniques with low power and high speed. Many Memory Built in Self-Test techniques have been proposed to test memories. Compared with combinational and sequential circuits memory testing utilizes ...
