  UNIT-3DESIGN FOR TESTABILITYPART-A1. What are the advantages of using DFT approach for testing?2. Define Predictability?It is an ability to obtain known output values in response to given input stimuli.3. List out the characteristics that influences various cost associative with testing?Status of a device to be determined and the isolation of faults within the device to be performed quickly toreduce both test time and cost. The cost effective development of the tests to be determine this status.4. What are the classifications of test points?Test points are classified into two typesControl points (CP) - CPs are primary inputs to enhance controllability.Observation points (OP) - Ops are primary outputs to enhance observability.5. Define Initialization?It is a process of bringing a sequential circuit into a known state at some known time, such as when it is powered on or after an initialization sequence is applied.6. List out the types of generic scan based design?Full serial integrated scanIsolated serial scan Non serial scan7. State the LSSD design rules?All internal storage elements must consist of polarity hold latches. Latches can be controlled by two or morenon overlapping clocks. Clock primary inputs cannot feed the data inputs to latches, either directly or throughcombinational logic. They may only feed clock inputs ti latches or primary outputs.8. List out the uses of scan design?Flipflops and latches are more complex. Hence scan designs are expensive in terms of board or silicon area.Some designs are not easily realizable as scan designs. Test generation costs can be significantly reduced. This canalso lead to higher fault coverage.PART-B1. Discuss briefly about generic scan based design techniques?

 2. How Ad-hoc designs are used to improve testability digital circuits? Explain with examples.3. Discuss on system level DFT techniques?4. Explain any four ad-hoc design methods used for improving the testability of digital circuits.5. Discuss on system level DFT techniques.6. Explain about the following i) Classical scan based design and ii) LSSD design rules.

  UNIT-4SELF TEST AND TEST ALGORITHMS2. List out the categories of test pattern generation approaches for BIST?Exhaustive/Pseudo exhaustive testingPseudo random testingDeterministic testing3.

 Constant weight counter Linear feedback shift register/ shift register(LFSR/SR) Linear feedback shift register/ EX-OR gates(LFSR/EX-OR)5. List out the BIST architectures? BILBO STUMPS LOCST6. Mention the test algorithms for RAMs? GALPAT WALKING 0s AND 1s March Test Checkboard test7. List the types of coupling faults exist in memories?Inversion coupling faultIdem-potent fault OR State coupling fault8. Mention the advantages of transition counting?It is not necessary to store either the correct response sequence or the actualresponse sequence at any test point; only the transition counts are needed.9. What are the advantages of circular BIST?

 It provides high fault coverage.Low hardware overhead.10. List out the methods of pseudo exhaustive pattern generation?Syndrome driver counterConstant weight counterLFSR/SRPART-B1. Discuss the test pattern generators used in BIST.2. Discuss the fault models used in memories and explain how test generation is done for embedded RAM3. Draw the circular BIST architecture and explain how testing is done using this architecture.4. Explain any two test algorithms used for testing memories.5. Explain about test generation and Built in self-test for embedded RAM.
