Abstract

Editor's note: What would it take to reduce speed binning's dependency on functional testing? One answer is a structural at-speed test approach that can achieve the same effectiveness as functional testing. The authors of this article offer a formula to relate structural critical-path testing frequency to system-operation frequency. They demonstrate that there can be a high correlation between frequencies resulting from structural testing and those resulting from functional testing.驴Li-C.
