Soc System On A Chip Testing For Plug And Play Test Automation

SOC (System-on-a-Chip) Testing for Plug and Play Test Automation

Various aspects of system-on-a-chip (SOC) integrated circuit testing are addressed in 13 papers on test planning, access, and scheduling; test data compression; and interconnect, crosstalk, and signal integrity. Topics include concurrent test of core-based SOC design and testing for interconnect crosstalk defects using on-chip embedded processor cores. The editor is affiliated with Duke University. The book is reprinted from a Special Issue of the Journal of Electronic Testing, vol. 18, nos. 4 & 5. There is no subject index. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).

SOC (System-on-a-Chip) Testing for Plug and Play Test Automation

System-on-a-Chip (SOC) integrated circuits composed of embedded cores are now commonplace. Nevertheless, there remain several roadblocks to rapid and efficient system integration. Test development is seen as a major bottleneck in SOC design and manufacturing capabilities. Testing SOCs is especially challenging in the absence of standardized test structures, test automation tools, and test protocols. In addition, long interconnects, high density, and high-speed designs lead to new types of faults involving crosstalk and signal integrity. SOC (System-on-a-Chip) Testing for Plug and Play Test Automation is an edited work containing thirteen contributions that address various aspects of SOC testing. SOC (System-on-a-Chip) Testing for Plug and Play Test Automation is a valuable reference for researchers and students interested in various aspects of SOC testing.
