Title
Power supply transient signal analysis for defect-oriented test
Abstract
Transient Signal Analysis (TSA) is a testing method that is based on the analysis of a set of VDD transient waveforms measured simultaneously at each supply port. Defect detection is per- formed by applying linear regression analysis to the time or frequency domain representations of these signals. Chip-wide process variation effects introduce signal variations that are correlated across the individual power port measurements. In contrast, defects introduce uncorrelated local variations across these measurements that can be detected as anomalies in the cross-correlation pro- file derived (using regression analysis) from the power port measurements of defect-free chips. This work focuses on the application of TSA to the detection of delay faults.
