Advances in very deep-submicron process technology require corresponding investments in design and test. Design infrastructure enabling the achievements of advanced design capability is well ...

Embedding test and measurement instrumentation on chips is not new; it’s been going on for years. What is new is how these instruments can be deployed beyond their original, limited, chip-specific ...

No doubt, the term “embedded” can be found in nearly every development sector. And everybody is working to broaden the embedded factor, be it on the chip or board level. In particular, the high rate ...

Built-in test and diagnostics are crucial to sensing and diagnosing failures — potentially saving lives, billions of dollars in liabilities, and reputations. Aerospace and defense system failures have ...

Today's sophisticated system-on-chip (SoC) devices implement a variety of specialized microelectronic functions. Those functions, sometimes complete embedded systems in their own right, typically ...
