DFT Challenges for Phase-Shifted Functional Clocks

Image
The use of mixed-signal processing is becoming vital among a wide variety of applications like telecommunication, networking, sensor chips, etc. In many designs, we have seen phase-shifted clocks being used by RTL designers. In a case where two flops are driven by phase-shifted clocks, we may not need to fix hold violations between them. When these flops are stitched together in a scan-chain using a single scan_clk, we will have hold violation during stuck-at capture. This leads to X-propagation through the compressor logic, causing coverage-loss. This article describes the challenges faced during DFT implementation for the above scenario. Phase-Shifted Clocks As a part of mixed-signal processing, many of the design uses phase-shifters circuits, which changes the phase-shift of the inputs by x degree. Below is one example of the phase-shifted clocks. DOWNLOAD CASE STUDY Design for Testability (DFT) of a Motion Control MEMS ASIC Download Now In the aspect of VLSI, consider a design wher...
