19th IEEE VLSI Test Symposium Defect Oriented Fault Diagnosis for Semiconductor Memories using Charge Analysis: Theory and Experiments Marina Del Rey, CA March 29-April 03 ISBN: 0-7695-1122-8
We evaluated a diagnostic technique based on the charge delivered to the IC during a transition. Charge computed from the transient supply current is related to the circuit internal activity. A specific activity can be forced into the circuit using appropriate test vectors to highlight possible defect locations. Experimental results from a small test circuit and a 256K SRAM demonstrate the experimental viability of the technique. The theoretical foundation is also discussed.
