IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishSoftware-based self-test (SBST) is being widely used in both manufacturing and in-the-field testing of processor-based devices and Systems-on-Chips. Unfortunately, the stuck-at fault model is increasingly inadequate to match the new and different types of defects in the most recent semiconductor technologies, while the explicit and separate targeting of every fault model in SBST is cumbersome due to the high complexity of the test-generation process, the lack of automation tools, and the high CPU-intensity of the fault-simulation process. Moreover, defects in advanced semiconductor technologies are not always covered by the most commonly used fault-models, and the probability of defect-escapes increases even more. To overcome these shortcomings we propose the first fault-independent SBST method. The proposed method is almost fully automated, it offers high coverage of non-modeled faults by means of a novel SBST-oriented probabilistic metric, and it is very fast as it omits the time-consuming test-generation/fault-simulation processes. Extensive experiments on the OpenRISC OR1200 processor show the advantages of the proposed method.

| Abstract: | Software-based self-test (SBST) is being widely used in both manufacturing and in-the-field testi...ng of processor-based devices and Systems-on-Chips. Unfortunately, the stuck-at fault model is increasingly inadequate to match the new and different types of defects in the most recent semiconductor technologies, while the explicit and separate targeting of every fault model in SBST is cumbersome due to the high complexity of the test-generation process, the lack of automation tools, and the high CPU-intensity of the fault-simulation process. Moreover, defects in advanced semiconductor technologies are not always covered by the most commonly used fault-models, and the probability of defect-escapes increases even more. To overcome these shortcomings we propose the first fault-independent SBST method. The proposed method is almost fully automated, it offers high coverage of non-modeled faults by means of a novel SBST-oriented probabilistic metric, and it is very fast as it omits the time-consuming test-generation/fault-simulation processes. Extensive experiments on the OpenRISC OR1200 processor show the advantages of the proposed method. |
