Publisher's Synopsis
Taking a three-pronged approach - test engineering from traditional-test, design and manufacturing view-points - Integrated Circuit Test Engineering encapsulates the subject as it stands today. After introductory background from basic testing rules to trends in technology, the reader learns about: fabrication processes; a complete range of detailed tests and procedures; how to design for testability; fault simulation; automatic test equipment and the economics of testing.
The text incudes:
Worked examples and exercises, well-organized references and bibliography.
An introduction to the use of various software and languages such as MATLAB®, Spice, Verilog®-HDL and VHDL.
A series of experiments based on material downloaded from springeronline.com showing how to construct a hardware test arrangement for MS Windows PCs.
This book is a practical tool for advanced undergraduate and graduate electronic engineering students, a resource for their tutors and a guide for the practising electronic engineer.
