18th IEEE VLSI Test Symposium

Book excerpt: Proceedings of a spring 2000 symposium, highlighting novel ideas and approaches to current and future problems related to testing of electronic circuits and systems. Themes are microprocessor test/validation, low power BIST and scan, technology trends, scan- related approaches, defect-driven techniques, and system-on-chip test techniques. Other subjects are analog test techniques, temperature and process drift issues, test compaction and design validation, analog BIST, and functional test and verification issues. Also covered are STIL extension, IDDQ test, and on-line testing and fault tolerance. Lacks a subject index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
