BICS-Based March Test for Resistive-Open Defects Detection in SRAM

Abstract:
Nowadays, embedded Static Random Memories (SRAMs) can occupy a significant portion of the chip area and contain hundreds of millions of transistors. Due to technology scaling, SRAM functional fault models, traditionally applied in memory testing, have become insufficient to correctly reproduce the effects produced by some defects generated during the manufacturing process. In this seminar, we investigate the possibility to use Built-In Current Sensors (BICSs) in combination with an optimized March algorithm to detect static faults associated to resistive-open defects. Experimental results obtained throughout electrical simulations validate the proposed technique demonstrating its viability and effectiveness.

Upcoming Events
Workshop “Metabolism and mathematical models: Two for a tango” – 2nd Edition
Title: Workshop Metabolism and mathematical models: Two for a tango – 2nd Edition
Dates: October 25-26, 2022
Location: This workshop will be held in a virtual way
The topic of this workshop is metabolism in general, with a special focus, although not exclusive, on parasitology. Besides an exploration of the biological, biochemical and biomedical aspects, the workshop will also aim at presenting some of the mathematical modelling, algorithmic theory and software development that have become crucial to explore such aspects.
This workshop is being organised in the context of two projects, both with the Inria European Team Erable. One of the projects involves a partnership with the University of São Paulo (USP), in São Paulo, Brazil, more specifically the Institute of Mathematics and Statistics (IME) and the Institute of Biomedical Sciences – Inria Associated Team Capoeira – and the other involves the Inesc-ID/IST in Portugal, ETH in Zürich and EMBL in Heidelberg – H2020 Twinning Project Olissipo.
The workshop is open to all members of these two projects but also, importantly, to the community in general.
The program and more details are available here.
