Many styles of test interfaces have been optimized for various constraints and goals over the years. There does, however appear to be a trend of test moving toward standard interfaces and increased ...

Cell phones and other mobile Internet devices (MIDs) typically use two primary chips—the RF section or radio transceiver and the baseband (BB) section, which handles the digital processing associated ...

Chip testing used to be straightforward. The development team used fault simulation to select a subset of the functional tests that could detect most possible manufacturing faults. These were ...

At some point, you’ll need to test that interface. Before testing, though, you should consider these five key factors. Practically everything you design these days includes some kind of serial ...
