Abstract :
This paper provides an overview of the problems that Intel encountered over the last five years during the evolution of our system on a chip (SOC) products and debug methodology. The topics covered include debug tools, types of bugs, and general data that support the infrastructure needed to validate an SOC. The paper discusses the diverse post-silicon issues encountered while debugging silicon
