Of all the electronic design automation (EDA) tools on the market, design for test (DFT) may be the most under-appreciated; even though building testability into a chip during the design phase will ...

Acquisition integrates advanced "shift-left" Design for Test (DFT) functionality into Siemens' Xpedition and Valor portfolios ...

The complexity with system-on-chip (SoC) design continues to grow, creating greater complexity of the corresponding design-for-test (DFT) logic required for manufacturing tests. Design teams are ...

The reality of DFT for large and complex SoCs has introduced new risk into design schedules. DFT teams end up in the critical path to tape out while waiting for portions of the design to be complete, ...

As the demand for processing power for artificial intelligence (AI) applications grows, semiconductor companies are racing to develop AI-specific silicon. The AI market is incredibly dynamic, with ...

XJTAG announced the release of a free software for PADS® Schematic Design that will significantly increase the Design for Test and Debug capabilities of the schematic capture and PCB design ...

Many IC designers finally have embraced design for testability (DFT) in the form of scan insertion for digital circuit designs because of the significant time-to-production advantages these techniques ...

Siemens AG (Munich, Germany) announced it has acquired ASTER Technologies, a privately held market leader in printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) test ...

This strategic move integrates ASTER’s advanced "shift-left" design for test (DFT) functionality directly into Siemens' ...
