The flip-flop, in whichever of its several forms you encounter it, is a staple of logic design. Any time that you need to ...

In this paper, the authors deal with the testable design of conservative logic based sequential circuits by using two test vectors. The conservative logic based sequential circuits are built from the ...

Scannability has always been a challenge and with complex architectures, the challenge is exacerbated by imposing several limitations like HOLD closure, yield loss, silicon failures due to HOLD, scan ...

I'm trying to help my son understand flip-flops. He's home from Uni for holiday and has a "workbook" to get thru all about Logic Circuits and Boolean algebra etc. Between us we've been able to ...

This series of articles reviews basic concepts, and is intended for hardware and software engineers working with embedded systems. In previous sessions we covered some of the fundamental electronic ...

Freescale Semiconductor India Pvt. Ltd. Scannability has always been a challenge and with the complex architectures, challenges gets multifold by imposing several limitations like HOLD closure, yield ...

In the modern era, there is always a requirement to achieve high frequency with lower power consumption. Achieving both targets simultaneously is very difficult and the situation becomes even more ...
