DFT Architecture With Power-Distribution-Network Consideration for Delay-Based Power Gating Test
2015
IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems
To restore this test quality loss, which could reach up to 67.7% of false passes and 25% of false fails due to stuckopen faults, we propose a design-for-testability (DFT) logic that accounts for a distributed ...
