Fault detection and location of dynamic reconfigurable FPGAs
Chi-Feng Wu, Cheng‐Wen Wu · 2003
Dynamic reconfigurable FPGAs provide a platform for reconfigurable computing as well as fast prototyping and emulation. For such FPGAs, we propose a dynamic serial (DS) test approach which takes advantage of their dynamic reconfiguration feature for testing. Compared with the parallel approach, the DS test approach significantly reduces the test configuration time and requires less I/O pins, resulting in a faster and easier testing procedure for dynamic reconfigurable FPGAs.
