- Specific skills in DFT implementation:
- Specification at the architecture level
- Implementation using tool-based and hand-crafted methods
- Integration of IP including CPUâs, Analog Macros, and IO PHYs
- BIST and memory repair integration
- Coverage analysis and improvement to meet targets
- ATPG, as well as manual and semi-automatic TPG, including simulation-based methods.
- Implementation of at-speed test methodologies
- DFT for power-managed designs
- Generation of STA and scenario/mode constraints
- Good knowledge of a full EDA vendor DFT tool suite.
