Analog fault simulation in mixed‐signal circuits is a critical tool for ensuring the robustness and reliability of systems that integrate both analogue and digital components. This field addresses the ...

In electronics engineering, a fault simulator predicts what will happen to a circuit when a component malfunctions, without having to actually install a bad component in the circuit. DPFS (DevPartner ...

Fault simulation, one of the oldest tools in the EDA industry toolbox, is receiving a serious facelift after it almost faded from existence. In the early days, fault simulation was used to grade the ...

Functional safety is a major challenge for field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and other semiconductor designs. Safety requirements go beyond traditional verification, which focuses on design bugs.

This is the second part of a two-part discussion (Part 1 appeared in August) in which the author considers fault-coverage analysis and simulation for full-scan testing of ASIC designs. These elements ...
