IC Performance Prediction for Test Cost Reduction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ð This paper describes a methodology for building models predicting manufactured integrated circuit performances as a function of inline and wafer electrical test measurements. We show how these predictions can be used to predict the performance of an industrial microprocessor, and reduce the average number of speed bins that must be tested by 45%.

ASIC Manufacturing Test Cost Prediction at Early Design Stage
This paper proposes a test cost prediction model which estimates the cost of IC testing in a manufacturing environment. The model predicts chip testing cost and quality of test using a set of circuit manufacturing parameters. The objective is to use these circuit parameters which are available at the early stage of the design cycle to determine and optimize manufacturing test cost.

One of the basic assumptions of management accounting illustrate that costschanges has a significance Relationship with increasing and decreasing in the levelof activity, recently after being raised of sticky costs issue by Anderson and hiscolleagues this assumption was discussed. It means Increases in costs by increasingthe more activity level of reduction in costs is exchange for the reductio...
متن کاملMechanical Strength Improvement of Mud Motor’s Elastomer by Nano Clay and Prediction the Working Life via Strain Energy
In directional drilling, the most important thing that leads to pulling out the drill string is end of mud motor working life. Considering the working conditions of down hole mud motors; increasing the mechanical properties of their stator’s elastomer is crucial. Some attempts were done to increase the motor performance through geometrical changes but lack of material improvement is significant...
متن کاملTest Pattern Generation and Test Application Time
As the complexity of VLSI circuits is increasing at the rate predicted by Moore's law and the switching frequencies are approaching a gigahertz, testing cost is becoming an important factor in the overall IC manufacturing cost. Testing cost is incurred by test pattern generation and test application processes. In this dissertation, we address both of these factors contributing to the testing co...
متن کاملMeasurement selection for parametric IC fault diagnosis
This paper describes experimental results obtained with the use of measurement reduction for statistical IC fault diagnosis. The reduction method used involves data pre-processing in a fashion consistent with a specific definition of parametric faults. The effects of this preprocessing are examined. 1 Introduction An integrated circuit test is specified by a combination of input and output sign...
