Explain about stuck at fault models, scan design, BIST and IDDQ testing?..

Answer / navya

IDDQ testing:usually performed at the beginning of test cycle.The test checks for leakage current to know if it is in normal range or abnormal range.If abnormal die fails,it is rejected and no further tests are performed.Iddq testing can detect clusters of gate oxide shorts(GOS) where gate voltage has no control over drain current and they tend to increase leakage levels.

BIST(built in self test): used to meet requirements such as high reliability and low repair cycle times.Bist reduces need for external testing(ATE).But the disadvantage is additional silicon area needed to implement BIST circuitry.

Scan design:test methodology built into digital chips
All flipflop are provided with alternate i/p for data as well as a separate clk i/p for scan testing.F/f connected together in scan chains.Testing is done by entering a special test mode called "scan mode" where test vectors is i/p to each scan chain and the bits clkd through all f/f's in the chain with resulting o/p chkd for errors.

Stuck at fault models:
stuck-on fault:always conducts Ids with an applied Vds,gate has no control over the operation
stuck off faults:current never flows regardless of Vgs or Vds.

Answer / seetharamukg

IDDQ testing is used for testing the library cells. Meaning
if any faults are there in our design we are going for DFT.
If any faults are there in the library itself we are doing
IDDQ testing.

Answer / shashank parashar

BIST is a biult in self test,in which we are going to test
our circuit in chip only.
Dft is a design for test.
IDDQ testing is used for testing the library cells.
