ABOUT

        Hi, I am Chetan Arvind Patil (chay-tun – how to pronounce), a semiconductor professional whose job is turning data into products for the semiconductor industry that powers billions of devices around the world. And while I like what I do, I also enjoy biking, working on few ideas, apart from writing, and talking about interesting developments in hardware, software, semiconductor and technology.

4o How DFT Evolved Beyond Test To Impact Reliability In the early years of integrated circuit (IC) design, Design-for-Testability (DFT) was primarily introduced to improve manufacturing fault coverage and lower production test costs. Techniques such as scan chains, Built-In Self-Test (BIST), and boundary scans were developed to ensure that devices could be tested efficiently after fabrication. The goal was straightforward: detect manufacturing defects like stuck-at faults or shorts and maximize the number of good parts shipped. Reliability, however, existed in a separate part of the development cycle. It focused on burn-in testing, life testing, and field failure analysis; activities typically performed long after the design phase had concluded. Early semiconductor technologies, with larger geometries and lower integration density, were far more tolerant of marginalities, allowing this separation […]
