A bottom-up methodology to characterize delay faults
J. Zubairi, Gary Craig · 2002
Inductive Fault Analysis is extended to consider localized spot defects in CMOS VLSI circuits which impact circuit timing performance. A scheme of deterministic introduction of spot defects into layouts of combinational logic circuits is described. A methodology and tool is developed to characterize delay defects resulting from missing and extra spot defects and to generate realistic delay defect distribution.>
