摘要:
A test pattern sequence to test a delay fault or an open fault which accompanies a delay occurring in an IC is easily and rapidly generated. A list of locations such as logic gates and signal lines within the circuit where a fault is likely to occur is prepared. One of the faults is selected and an initialization test pattern v1 which establishes an initial value for activating the fault at the location of a fault is determined by an implication operation. A propagation test pattern v2 which causes a stuck-at fault to be propagated to a following gate is determined by another implication operation. A sequence formed by v1 and v2 is registered with a test pattern list and the described operations are repeated until there remains no unprocessed fault in the fault list.

Selected test pattern sequences to be used in transient power supply current testing to detect path delay faults in an IC are easily and rapidly generated. A stored fault list of path delay faults is prepared. A train of transition signal values is calculated by simulation of transitions occurring in the IC when a test pattern sequence is applied to the IC, and respective path delay fault in the stored fault list is determined whether it is a detectable fault that is capable of being detected by the transient power supply current testing by using the transition signal values. Those detectable faults that exist in the stored fault list are deleted from the stored fault list and those test pattern sequences that are used to detect the detectable faults existing in the stored fault list are registered in a test pattern sequence list as the selected test pattern sequence.

A pneumatic tire having improved noise buffering capability and operation stability while maintaining excellent water discharge capability. A circumferential straight main groove (1) is provided at the center of a tread center region. Arc-like curved main grooves (3) where a plurality of arc-like grooves (3a) are circumferentially formed so as to be continuous in a repeated manner are arranged on both sides of the straight main groove (1). Further, circumferential auxiliary grooves (4) with a width smaller than that of any of the straight main groove (1) and arc-like curved main grooves (3) are provided in each of both tread shoulder regions.

A tread surface, the tire rotational direction of which is specified in one direction, has a center region. Blocks having obtuse-angled corner portions and acute-angled corner portions are defined in the center region by at least one first circumferential groove extending in a circumferential direction of the tire on one side of the tire centerline, and first lateral grooves which extend outwardly in a widthwise direction of the tire from the first circumferential groove so as to incline towards a direction of reverse rotation of the tire and are disposed at predetermined intervals in the tire circumferential direction. Groove wall surfaces located on both sides of the obtuse-angled corner portion of each block facing to the first circumferential groove are inclined such that the inclination angles thereof are gradually greater towards the obtuse-angled corner portion and are maximum at the obtuse-angled corner portion.

A test pattern sequence which is used to test a delay fault or an open fault which accompanies a delay occurring in an IC is easily and rapidly generated. A list of locations such as logic gates and signal lines within the circuit where a fault is likely to occur is prepared (101). One of the faults is selected, and an initialization test pattern v1 which establishes an initial value for activating the fault at the location of a fault is determined by the implication operation (103), and a propagation test pattern v2 which causes a stuck-at fault to be propagated to a following gate is determined by the implication operation (105). A sequence formed by v1 and v2 is registered with a test pattern list (107), and the described operations are repeated until there remains no unprocessed fault in the fault list.

A main surface of a base substrate of sapphire is selectively formed an irregular region on the main surface. Then, a semiconductor layer of gallium nitride is grown to fill recessed portions in the irregular region of the base substrate and make the upper surface even. Then, a laser beam is irradiated upon the interface between the semiconductor layer and the irregular region of the base substrate to separate the semiconductor layer from the base substrate. As a result, a nitride semiconductor substrate is produced from the semiconductor layer.

A fault analysis method and apparatus which is able to improve the reliability of fault analysis of semiconductor integrated circuit. In case of supplying a test pattern sequence having a plurality of test patterns to the semiconductor IC, an analysis point whose electric potential changes according to the change of supplied test pattern is placed corresponding to the test pattern sequence. Then, a transient power supply current generated on the semiconductor IC according to the change of the test pattern is measured and determined whether the measured transient power supply current is abnormal or not. A defection point is presumed based on the test pattern sequence where the transient power supply current is abnormal, and the analysis point placed corresponding to the test pattern sequence.
摘要:
A signal under measurement is transformed into a complex analytic signal using Hilbert transformation to estimate an instantaneous phase of the signal under measurement from the complex analytic signal. A least mean square line of the instantaneous phase is calculated to obtain a linear instantaneous phase of the signal under measurement, and a zero-crossing timing of the signal under measurement is estimated using an interpolation method. Then a difference between the instantaneous phase and the linear instantaneous phase at the zero-crossing timing is calculated to estimate a timing jitter sequence. A jitter of the signal under measurement is obtained from the jitter sequence.
