Aim:  Introduction to the testing problem for integrated circuits, enabling the participants to design integrated circuits of high test quality.
Contents:  The course treats the fundamental theory for test of electronic circuits with specific emphasis on the design of highly testable digital integrated circuits.
The course covers the topics of:
- physical failure mechanisms and logic fault models,
- testability analysis (controllability and observability),
- algorithms for test pattern generation,
- test evaluation (fault coverage) and fault sampling,
- design for test and test of special design structures,
- testability at board level,
- test planning in the design phase,
- commercial test systems, test and measurement equipment.
