How ASICS are tested?

[manish12]

I want to know how ASICS are tested?
Kindly specify in testing methodology and papers. Kindly send papers if you have.

What you want to know?
Tester for ASIC or insert DFT for ASIC?

Question is not clear..

i want know , how asics are tested, like iddq testing for detecting the physical defect in the chip are used.
similarly what methods for asics testing we use ?

 

[wangkl]

SCAN chain, BURN-IN, BIST insertion, IDDQ, BoudaryScan ...

For analog test, it is decided by designers for a specific design.

hellow,

You can test the ASICs using FPGA boards also, before going to final fabrication usually now a days people are testing on the FPGA based boards, so that they can see the performance on the real time boards, How it works ????
These boards are usuallt called ASIC prototyping boards.
One of such I know is from Hardi Electronics Sweden
Web link www.hardi.com
I am attaching some pdfs also , that might help
give me ur feedback about these boards , or let me know if you have any queries related to that boards...

with regards

Look at the DFT links, under DFT courses, you would find good references on the topic.
