Traditional at-speed test methods cannot guarantee high quality test results as they face many new challenges. Supply noise effects on chip performance, high test pattern volume, small delay defect test pattern generation, high cost of test implementation and application, and utilizing low-cost testers are among these challenges. This book discusses these challenges in detail and proposes new techniques and methodologies to improve the overall quality of the transition fault test. INDICE: Introduction to path delay and transition delay fault models and test methods.- At-speed test challenges for nanometer technology designs.- Low-cost tester friendly design-for-test techniques.- Improving test quality of current at-speed test methods.- Functionally untestable fault list generation and avoidance.- Timing-based ATPG for screening small delay faults.- Faster-than-at-speed test considering IR-drop effects.- IR-drop tolerant at-speed test pattern generation and application.
