Standard IDDQ testing is limited by the ability to distinguish a small fault current from a large background leakage current: this limitation is overcome in FPGAs by differential IDDQ testing. Partitioning of interconnects—dividing the interconnect resources of an FPGA into groups—further increases the detectability of a fault current. Fault location can be achieved by iteratively applying part...

The O-glycosylation of several unprotected deoxythioglycosides and alcohols using 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone (DDQ) under long-wavelength UV irradiation was effectively realized using a single electron transfer (SET) mechanism. In some cases, the use of p-methoxyboronic acid was very effective in temporary protection of the 1,3-diol (C4 and C6 positions) of the unprotected glycosyl ...

A concise one-pot synthesis of highly functionalized pyridines has been developed. The first step in the reaction sequence is the formal insertion of rhodium vinylcarbenoids across the N-O bond of isoxazoles. Upon heating, the insertion products undergo a rearrangement to give 1,4-dihydropyridines. DDQ oxidation then affords the corresponding pyridines in 31-84% yield. The process has proven ge...

The remarkable catalytic effects of Fe(OTf)(3) in the context of the Pd(ii)-catalyzed conjugate addition of arylboronic acids to chromones were observed to yield a variety of flavanones under mild conditions. The addition of catalytic amounts of DDQ and KNO(2) to the reactions exclusively yielded flavone analogs. The reaction scope for the transformation was fairly broad, affording good yields ...

Six drugs viz., Astemizole, Domperidone, Esomeprazole, Losartan potassium, Sumatriptan and Terazosin were tested for the formation of charge transfer complexes with 2, 3-dichloro 5, 6-dicyanopbenzoquinone, (DDQ). Each of these drugs turned the pale yellow colour of reagent i.e DDQ. in CH3CN, to purple and exhibited three bands at 455, 545 and 588 nm due to anion of the reagent whose intensity i...

Two simple, sensitive, cheep and reliable spectrophotometric methods are suggested for micro-determination of pseudoephedrine in its pure form and in pharmaceutical preparation (Sinofree Tablets). The first one depends on the drug reaction with inorganic sensitive reagent like molybdate anion in aqueous media via formation of ion-pair mechanism. The second one depends on the drug reaction with ...

BACKGROUND To study the potentially avoidable decision-making delay in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) adults male with different psychological characteristics a nationwide multicentre study was conducted in Italy by the 118 Coronary Care Units (CCUs). METHOD 929 AMI patients consecutively presented to the CCU in a conscious condition less than two hours, 2-6 hours, 6-12 hours, and more tha...

This paper presents an I test generation system for DDQ scan-based circuits, called CURRENT. A library-based fault modeling strategy is used to specify a realistic target fault set, which encompasses intra-gate shorts (for example stuck-on faults, gate-drain shorts) as well as inter-gate shorts (bridging faults). CURRENT consists of a fault simulator and a deterministic test generator. The faul...
