  abstract     = {{Ever increasing demands on the performance of microchips are leading to ever more complex semiconductor technologies with ever shrinking feature sizes. Complex applications with high demands on safety and reliability, such as autonomous driving, are simultaneously driving the requirements for test and diagnosis of VLSI circuits. Throughout the life cycle of a microchip, uncertainties occur that affect its timing behavior. For example, weak circuit structures, aging effects, or process variations can lead to a change in the timing behavior of the circuit. While these uncertainties do not necessarily lead to a change of the functional behavior, they can lead to a reliability problem.
With modular and hybrid compaction two test instruments are presented in this work that can be used for X-tolerant test response compaction in the built-in Faster-than-At-Speed Test (FAST) which is used to detect uncertainties in VLSI circuits. One challenge for test response compaction during FAST is the high and varying X-rate at the outputs of the circuit under test. By dividing the circuit outputs into test groups and separately compacting these test groups using stochastic compactors, the modular compaction is able to handle these high and varying X-rates.
To deal with uncertainties on logic interconnects, a method for distinguishing crosstalk and process variation is presented. In current semiconductor technologies, the number of parasitic coupling capacitances between logic interconnects is growing. These coupling capacitances can lead to crosstalk, which causes increased current flow in the logic interconnects, which in turn can lead to increased electromigration. In the presented method, delay maps describing the timing behavior of the circuit outputs at different operating points are used to train artificial neural networks which classify the tested circuits into fault-free and faulty.}},
