Testing the design: the evolution of test simulation
Craig Force, Tim Austin · 2002
In work done in cooperation with Texas Instruments, Analogy, and Teradyne it has been demonstrated that a simulation of a complete test system when combined with design models of an integrated circuit can reduce the cycle time required to get a new product to market. This paper will describe the development of such a system, its inclusion in the design flow for new IC development, and the resulting improvements in new product introduction from the viewpoint of design and test.
