abstract = {A target structure for implementing fast edge-triggered control units is presented. In many cases, the proposed controller is faster than a one-hot encoded structure as its correct timing does not require master-slave flip-flops even in the presence of unpredictable clocking skews. A synthesis procedure is proposed which leads to a performance improvement of 40\% on average for the standard benchmark set whereas the additional area is less than 25\% compared with conventional finite state machine (FSM) synthesis. The proposed approach is compatible with the state-of-the-art methods for FSM decomposition, state encoding and logic synthesis.},

abstract = {A deterministic BIST scheme is presented which requires less hardware overhead than pseudo-random BIST but obtains better or even complete fault coverage at the same time. It takes advantage of the fact that any autonomous BIST scheme needs a BIST control unit for indicating the completion of the self-test at least. Hence, pattern counters and bit counters are always available, and they provide information to be used for deterministic pattern generation by some additional circuitry. This paper presents a systematic way for synthesizing a pattern generator which needs less area than a 32-bit LFSR for random pattern generation for all the benchmark circuits.},
