    摘要: A method of and system for generating tests and using the tests to identify VLSI simulation and circuit operation faults and errors and validate performance uses a genetic algorithm. Each generation of tests is further processed to eliminate redundant tests and make room for the insertion of new genetic material into the population in the form of random test vectors. The resulting family of tests generated using a simulation of the VLSI can then be ported to the circuit once prototyped in silicon and adapted to the new environment using, once again, the genetic algorithm to suitably evolve the test population.

    摘要: Embodiments of the invention describe an apparatus, system and method for executing self-correction logic for serial-to-parallel data converters. Embodiments of the invention receive one of a plurality of serial data streams from a peripheral device, each of the serial data streams having one or more bits. In response to detecting that a shift register chain includes a register select value, embodiments of the invention may store the received serial data stream in one of a plurality of data registers, wherein the one data register is selected based, at least in part, on a position of the register select value in the shift register chain. In response to detecting the shift register chain does contain the register select value, embodiments of the invention may insert the register select value at a register of the shift register chain.

    摘要: Various embodiments of the invention provide a frequency shifter to vary the frequency of data transmitted over time, such as to increase and decrease the frequency of test data transmitted over time to verify a digital communication device's ability to receive data having various frequencies within a specific parameter range. The frequency shifter includes a frequency modifier to shift or vary an input clock frequency to a variety of output clock frequencies, such as according to a test protocol. The frequency shifter also includes an elastic data buffer to receive the test data at the input clock frequency and to output the test data at the plurality of output clock frequencies provided by the frequency modifier.
