Scan-Based Delay Measurement Technique Using Signature Registers
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
With the scaling of semiconductor process technology, performance of modern VLSI chips will improve significantly. However, as the scaling increases, small-delay defects which are caused by resistive-short, resistive-open, or resistive-via become serious problems. The proposed method uses a signature analysis and a scan design to detect small delay defects. The proposed measurement technique measures the delay of the explicitly sensitized paths with the resolution of the on-chip variable clock generator. The proposed scan design realizes complete on-chip delay measurement in short measurement time using the proposed delay measurement technique and extra latches for storing the test vectors.
