Modern microelectronic design is characterized by the integration of full systems on a single die. These systems often include large high performance digital circuitry, high resolution analog parts, high driving I/O, and maybe RF sections. Designers of such systems are constantly faced with the challenge to achieve compatibility in electrical characteristics of every section: some circuitry presents fast transients and large consumption spikes, whereas others require quiet environments to achieve resolutions well beyond millivolts. Coupling between those sections is usually unavoidable, since...

Temperature has been always considered as an appreciable magnitude to detect failures in electric systems. In this book, the authors present the feasibility of considering temperature as an observable for testing purposes, with full coverage of the state of the art.

Con el incremento de prestaciones en los circuitos integrados, y la mayor demanda de aplicaciones portatiles, la estimacion del consumo se ha convertido en un factor clave en el diseno. El impacto de las tecnicas de reduccion del consumo es especialmente significativo en niveles altos de abstraccion, por lo que se hace necesario por parte del disenador disponer de tecnicas de prediccion del consumo a los niveles de sistema y arquitectura. A nivel RTL se caracteriza el consumo de los bloques basicos en macro bloques, que dependen de las propiedades estadisticas de las senales asociadas a este...
