suggests that significantly more care bits can be encoded in the seed of a
Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR), if a limited number of conflicting
equations is ignored in the employed linear equation system. The ignored care
bits are separately embedded into the LFSR pattern. In contrast to known
deterministic BIST schemes based on test set embedding, the embedding logic
function is not hardwired. Instead, this information is stored in memory using
a special compression and decompression method. Experiments for benchmark
circuits and industrial designs demonstrate that the approach has considerably
higher overall coding efficiency than the existing methods.}, url = {http://www2.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/cgi-bin/NCSTRL/NCSTRL_view.pl?id=INPROC-2007-79&engl=0} }

to soft errors. In combinational logic a particle strike may lead to a glitch
at the output of a gate, also referred to as single even transient (SET), which
in turn can propagate to a register and cause a single event upset (SEU) there.
Circuit level modeling and analysis of SETs provides an attractive compromise
between computationally expensive simulations at device level and less accurate
techniques at higher levels. At the circuit level particle strikes crossing a
pn-junction are traditionally modeled with the help of a transient current
source. However, the common models assume a constant voltage across the
pn-junction, which may lead to inaccurate predictions concerning the shape of
expected glitches. To overcome this problem, a refined circuit level model for
strikes through pnjunctions is investigated and validated in this paper. The
refined model yields significantly different results than common models. This
has a considerable impact on SEU prediction, which is confirmed by extensive
simulations at gate level. In most cases, the refined, more realistic, model
reveals an almost doubled risk of a system failure after an SET.}, url = {http://www2.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/cgi-bin/NCSTRL/NCSTRL_view.pl?id=INPROC-2007-78&engl=0} }

support for at-speed test. Deterministic logic BIST (DLBIST) is a technique
which was successfully applied to stuck-at fault testing. As delay faults have
lower random pattern testability than stuck-at faults, the need for DLBIST
schemes is increased. Nevertheless, an extension to delay fault testing is not
trivial, since this necessitates the application of pattern pairs.
Consequently, delay fault testing is expected to require a larger mapping
effort and logic overhead than stuck-at fault testing. In this paper, we
consider the so-called transition fault model, which is widely used for
complexity reasons. We present an extension of a DLBIST scheme for transition
fault testing. Functional justification has been used to generate the required
pattern pairs. The efficiency of the extended scheme is investigated by using
difficult to test industrial designs.}, url = {http://www2.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/cgi-bin/NCSTRL/NCSTRL_view.pl?id=ART-2007-05&engl=0} }
