Recently, it has the problem that good VLSIs in production testing become defective VLSIs in the fields because small delays on signal lines are caused by aged deterioration. Some field test methods have been proposed to detect defects caused by aged deterioration. However, it is difficult to detect small delay faults comprehensively in field testing from the view point of test application time. Therefore, it is important to select target paths in field testing. A target path is defined as a delay fault –propagation path pair. Some methods to select as long paths as possible using SDQM and calculate aging degrade at the pass. have been proposed as target path selection. However, these methods do not consider process variation caused when VLSIs are manufactured. In this paper, we evaluate the number of dangerous paths which are not critical at design phase but become critical after manufacturing VLSIs as a stage before proposing a path selection method for field testing. Experimental results for ISCAS’89 and ITC’99 benchmark circuits show that there are 20 dangerous paths for 1000 VLSIs in the maximum. |
