Scandump is an advanced silicon debugging technique that ingeniously repurposes DFT (Design For Testability) scan chains for functional debugging. This method allows for the extraction of states from ...

If you're a chip designer, you may not want to admit it's possible that you need a post-silicon debugging tool. But unless you're convinced your chips will always be perfect the first time, it could ...

You all know that fixing bugs in computer chips after they've been fabricated in silicon is a tedious and costly process. This is why researchers at the University of Michigan have developed a new ...

Not too long ago, the return of first silicon from the foundry was a nail-biting moment as power was applied to the chip. Today, better verification methodologies, increased use of emulation, and more ...
