초록

It is shown that $I_{DDQ}$ testing is very useful for shipping fault-free CMOS ICs. However, test time of $I_{DDQ}$ testing is extremely larger than one of logic testing. In this paper, a new test input sequence generation methodology is proposed to reduce the test time of $I_{DDQ}$ testing. At first, it is Shown that $I_{DDQ}$ test time Will be denominated by charge supply current for load capacitance of gates whose output logic values are changed by test input vector application and the charge current depends on input sequence of test vectors. After that, a test input sequence generation methodology is proposed. The feasibility is checked by some experiments.riments.
