  • Abstract
    The feasibility of combining IDDQ and and iDDt testing to detect defective CMOS circuits by measuring the energy consumed by the tested circuit is considered. The energy chronogram of a circuit is used as an energy signature which makes it possible to distinguish between defect-free and defective circuits. Exploratory implementation of the proposed method is presented and experimental results obtained from in-house full custom circuits and commercially available circuits are discussed
