Survey of Test Vector Compression Techniques
TL;DR: This article summarizes and categories hardware-based test vector compression techniques for scan architectures, which fall broadly into three categories: code-based schemes use data compression codes to encode test cubes; linear-decompression- based schemes decompress the data using only linear operations; and broadcast-scan-based scheme rely on broadcasting the same values to multiple scan chains.

Static compaction techniques to control scan vector power dissipation
TL;DR: It is shown here that by carefully selecting the order in which pairs of test cubes are merged during static compaction, both average power and peak power for the final test set can be greatly reduced.

Test vector decompression via cyclical scan chains and its application to testing core-based designs
A. Jas,Nur A. Touba +1 more
TL;DR: A novel test vector compression/decompression technique is proposed for reducing the amount of test data that must be stored on a tester and transferred to each core when testing a core-based design.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Cost-effective approach for reducing soft error failure rate in logic circuits
Kartik Mohanram,Nur A. Touba +1 more
TL;DR: A new paradigm for designing logic circuits with concurrent error detection (CED) based on partial duplication is described, capable of reducing the soft error failure rate significantly with a fraction of the overhead required for full duplication.

Scan vector compression/decompression using statistical coding
TL;DR: A compression/decompression scheme based on statistical coding is presented for reducing the amount of test data that must be stored on a tester and transferred to each core in a core-based design.
