A complete test plan includes testing the logic and all memories. That is, until the boss adds, “Oh, by the way, the DFT guy left the company, so you also get to do the test stuff. Choose any tools ...

Two test strategies are used to test virtually all IC logic—automatic test pattern generation (ATPG) with test pattern compression, and logic built-in self-test (BIST). For many years, there was a ...

Two test strategies are used to test virtually all IC logic: automatic test pattern generation (ATPG) with test pattern compression and logic built-in self-test (BIST). This article will describe how ...

The purpose of the project is to simply identify and test the condition of digital IC if it is good or defective. An IC tester can be applied to any type of digital ICs. There are some provisions that ...

Over time many of us accumulate a stock of components, including logic IC's (TTL and CMOS). If you're anything like me, many of these will be secondhand - salvaged from old projects and PCBs. The ...
