The trend in semiconductors leads to more IC test data volume, longer test times, and higher test costs. Embedded deterministic test (EDT) has continued to deliver more compression, which has been ...

The purpose of your engine is to compress fuel and air and then ignite it, creating heat energy that then makes mechanical motion. If your engine can't compress the air and fuel properly, the engine ...

Last month we acquainted you with a few unique procedures for using conventional tune-up devices—such as a vacuum gauge, timing light and electrical analyzer—for evaluating the efficiency and ...

IC designers now have a powerful weapon in the struggle against rising test costs: commercially available EDA solutions that provide fast and effective means to implement scan compression on-chip. By ...

Today’s highly complex and large system on chip (SoC) devices and systems present many challenges to be addressed from manufacturing tests to the field while meeting stringent requirements for test ...

Moore’s law has been the standard reference for semiconductor scaling. It roughly says that semiconductor design sizes, fueled by technology improvements, double every two years. Consequentially, the ...
