Taken literally, embedded test is just that: test capabilities that exist wholly embedded within a system. Power-on self-test is an example as is a built-in performance-monitoring feature programmed ...

All electronic systems carry the possibility of failure. An embedded system has intrinsic intelligence that facilitates the possibility of predicting failure and mitigating its effects. This two-part ...

It's no longer enough for test engineers to insert DFT scan chains into a flattened chip layout after synthesis. Now, embedded test structures are being thought of as the first line of defense for ...

Medical device companies, especially those with real-time embedded-system products, are often burdened with lengthy verification cycles. Even small development efforts can result in months of ...

The Open Verification Methodology (OVM) has been available for download under the Apache 2.0 license since January 2008. Signs of an ecosystem have gradually emerged since then. As just one example, ...
