To keep up with time-to-market demands when SoCs keep increasing in size and complexity requires the adoption of better DFT flows and technologies. One of the most successful changes in ...

What if all the DFT verification on your next big chip could be completed before tape-out? This “shift-left” of DFT verification would eliminate the need for shortcuts in verification and allow for ...

Why isolated flows negatively impact design schedule and PPA. Benefits of unified DFT, synthesis, and physical design flows. Physical implementation optimization methods for test compression and scan ...

What is CTL, and why is it important to the semiconductor industry? The answers are here. Although the IEEE 1450.0 Stand-ard Test Interface Language (STIL) was adopted in March 1999, widespread ...

Before we proceed, let's quickly review our filter bank example. Our example, shown in Figure 1, is a size 16 DFT filter bank. The color scheme shows the sample rate change where a 16 MHz input sample ...
