Fusion researchers in the United States are turning to artificial intelligence to solve one of the field’s most stubborn ...

Design-for-test, or DFT, should facilitate high-quality test, not change the design. Test techniques and strategies need to supply a high-quality test that screens out defective devices, avoiding ...

As boring as propeller designs may seem to the average person, occasionally there’s a bit of a dust-up in the media about a ‘new’ design that promises at least a few percent improvement in performance ...

Understanding connectivity issues and interactions are only part of the problem; ECOs can cause unexpected problems in other ...

Memory test at-speed isn't easy but can be achieved by balancing test selection, area overhead, and test-time constraints. The semiconductor industry has intensified its focus on yield issues to meet ...

Automotive integrated circuits (ICs) are the critical drivers behind modern vehicle automation, safety, and efficiency. As electronic systems in automobiles become increasingly complex, robust testing ...

When semiconductor devices had geometries of 0.18 microns and larger, most defects manifested themselves as static faults. Test strategies based on stuck-at fault-model scan patterns and standard ...

Virtual system integration and test using Model-Based Design uncovers errors introduced in the requirements and design phases of embedded system development, well before the physical testing phase. As ...
