Design for testability (DFT) works to make a circuit more testable to ensure that it was manufactured correctly. Alfred Crouch explains the purpose of DFT in his book, Design-For-Test for Digital ICs ...

Functional verification can cost as much as design, but new capabilities are piling onto an already stressed verification methodology, leaving solutions fragmented and incomplete. In a perfect world, ...

Autoantibody assays may have significant differences due to the heterogeneity of autoantibodies, including epitope specificity, isotype, and affinity/avidity. This makes it challenging for clinical ...

Until very recently, semiconductor design, verification, and test were separate domains. Those domains have since begun to merge, driven by rising demand for reliability, shorter market windows, and ...

Teradyne subsidiary LitePoint is expanding its wireless-device test capability with its acquisition last week of ZTEC Instruments. The acquisition highlights the limitations of design-verification and ...

Hardware-assisted verification (HAV) solutions are the must-have verification tools today as complexity, functionality, and performance requirements grow. They are also mandatory to ensure that design ...
