Research output: Contribution to specialist publicationArticle

Abstract

Virtual test applied to integrated circuit (IC) testing to reduce the overall product development time in IC manufacturing is discussed. The test is based on software-based simulation environment where an emulated test capability interacts with a software model of the IC device. Virtual tests allows the simulation of the physical test instruments, test programs, new device under test (DUT) and device interface board (DIB). The resulting reduction in product development time is presented as the key to competitive success of individual companies.
