    摘要: A method for testing an electronic circuit comprises selecting a plurality of test patterns arranged in an order. The method tests an electronic circuit by applying to the electronic circuit a first subset range of the plurality of test patterns sequentially in the order, from a first test pattern to a first log interval after the first test pattern, thereby generating a first associated output. The method compares the first associated output with a first known output of the plurality of known outputs. In the event the first associated output does not match the first known output, the method stores indicia of the first mismatch; causes the electronic circuit to appear to assume the first known output state; and proceeds with additional test procedures.

    摘要: A method for testing an electronic circuit comprises selecting a first log interval, a first log start pattern, a first log end pattern, and a first subset range of LBIST patterns from a plurality of LBIST patterns arranged in an order, wherein each LBIST pattern of the subset range of LBIST patterns causes an associated output of an electronic circuit. The method tests an electronic circuit in a first test by applying to the electronic circuit the first subset range of LBIST patterns sequentially in the order, thereby generating a first plurality of associated outputs. The method stores a first subset of associated outputs based on the first log interval, the first log start pattern, and the first log end pattern. The method compares the subset of associated outputs with known outputs to identify a first output mismatch.

    摘要: A system and method are provided for monitoring temperature within a specified integrated circuit. Usefully, the system comprises at least one oscillator device proximate to the integrated circuit for generating signal pulses at a frequency that varies as a function of the temperature adjacent to the oscillator device. The system further comprises a control unit for establishing sample acquisition periods of invariant time duration based on an time invariant reference clock. A sampling component is coupled to count the number of pulses generated by the oscillator device during each of a succession of the time invariant sample acquisition periods, and a threshold component responsive to the respective count values for the succession of sample acquisition periods provides notice when at least some of the count values have a value associated with a prespecified excessive temperature level.
