This paper discusses the application of power supply voltage control testing technique for analogue circuits. It compares the fault coverage of voltage level and supply current monitoring schemes and proposes a technique to expose defects in redundants circuits that are very difficult to be exposed by using other testing techniques. It also discusses the effect in exposing defects by using different power supply frequency. Measurement and data analysis techniques to facilitate identification and classification between hard and soft defects are also proposed.
Index Terms:
Fault model, analogue test, low voltage test
