Test compression sounds like magic. Read on to learn how this trick is done. Large, complex ICs are viable because their design meets test as well as functional requirements. Design for test (DFT) was ...

Embedded test compression is a standard technique for dramatically reducing the test data volume and test time on the automatic test equipment. Companies typically aim for 60x to 100x compression for ...

Test compression offers the benefits of higher quality and lower test cost, but how do you choose the best methodology and tools for your current and future designs? Test compression evaluations ...

The trend in semiconductors leads to more IC test data volume, longer test times, and higher test costs. Embedded deterministic test (EDT) has continued to deliver more compression, which has been ...

The ability to control test cost while design sizes have grown exponentially is a success story that relies on the invention and continuous improvement of embedded test compression. One way test ...
