Abstract

This paper gives an overview of reported design- and process-related electrical performance failure modes for high-speed (1 GHz) serial interfaces fabricated using CMOS processes ..130 nm. Effects of various defects on observable performance at the I/O pins are summarized, along with ATE test technology implications.
