DFT Rules

try "Advanced ASIC Chip Synthesis using Synopsys DC, Physical Compiler and PT" book.

DFT Rules

Boundary Scan (JTAG) is one of the most popular parts of DfT.

Re: DFT Rules

A good starter might be:

h**p://www.caip.rutgers.edu/~bushnell/COURSE/lec23.ppt

It's one of the powerpoint presentations that went into making
"Essentials of Electronic Testing for Digital, Memory, and Mixed-Signal VLSI Circuits"
By Bushnell and Agrawal

DFT Rules

Hi ,
Can any one send the attachment of all dft rules and the solutions.

Re: DFT Rules

I'm sorry dbshailesh, but can you be more specific about that which you are applying design-for-test? DFT is too big a big subject for someone to "post all dft rules and the solutions".

Re: DFT Rules

Basic DFT rules include: ( I remember only these)

1. Clock & data should not change at same time.
2. No combinational loopbacks
3. Clock should not feed data input.

Re: DFT Rules

I just posted a list of 'top 10 scan design rules' over at DFT Digest. If you're looking for a complete set, and have access to Mentor documentation, you could look in the 'DFT Common Resources Manual' and they have all their DRCs listed.
